Re: 15 FREE! Charters from some of the best captains on the Lake!
Just bought 6 tickets. It's not much, but I hope it helps. Wish a speedy recovery to Capt. Allen. Who knows, with a little luck I just might get to go on a charter with my grandson.

Re: Sunday's frustration (hint no fish and stable flies)
Thanks for the info. I like the longer leader idea. I usually tie my harnesses either 36" or 48".
