Sun. 4/01 Mon. 4/02 Great Fishing

Made the drive up Sunday morning with my dad and youngest son. Launched at Beef Creek and got lines set at 10:00. Fished north of the cans and got our 3 man limit. Pulled RR 30 to 40 back at 1.3 - 1.6. Awesome grade of fish with 3 fish Ohio's. Could barely lift the cooler.

Monday the morning forecast was for 3 to 5's so we slept in a bit. Wish now we would have gone out earlier and not listened to the weather man. Set lines same area at 9:30 in 2 to 3's and was back at it with 4 fish right off the bat. About 11:00 the sun came out and the bite slowed down. We managed 9 pigs that went 65 pounds with 5 fish Ohio's before throwing in the towel at 5:30. Son got his personal best 10.5 pounder that got dropped of at the taxidermist.

A big thanks to skipper9 for everything and also to Gettin Jiggy and Nite Bite. Great fishin with you guys and chattin on the radio.

Awsome job! It was a great time Sunday, hope to see you out there again. It's nice to have people on the water to talk to! I can't wait till my daughter is old enough to get on them fish.

Congrats to your son for getting a new PB. those are some great memories you guys made. thanks for sharing.

Hey what kind of line were you using and what pound test to handle those hawgs? 10 lb test mono? 14 lb fire line? Thanks.

Yes it does. That's why I don't mind pulling them from school for a few days to make memories like these. I have three son's 20, 13, & 11 years old that all fish & hunt with me. My youngest son there ran the starboard side boards both days mostly by himself. They are great boys, great students, & great fisherman and I'm very proud of them.

Awesome Wes! I can't wait til my boy is old enough.

As in my last name?

Walleye2go,

Yes.

That's me...who are you?

Lol....its Fisher.

I thought when you mentioned that you were anxious for the boy to be able to fish with you, that it must be you. i have that same feeling. Thomas and i were over on Thursday and Friday. Got limits both days jigging, biggest a 7# male. Hoping to troll this weekend if its not too choppy. i have a bunch of new DHJ's and RR's that need soaked...LOL:D

Outstanding pictures! The weather is looking brutal for tomorrow so it looks like AGAIN I am postponing.

Thanks for sharing! Nothing better than memories made on the water with your children!!
