Memorial Day, May 25th
The alarm went off and as I was trying to roll myself out of bed, I could see the tree tops tattering. After checking the weather on the WBSA’s weather information page (http://www.wbsa.us/index.php?page=denied), I made the decision that even though the wind was approaching 20mph that we could attempt to fish the south passage in a south west wind. I set up once again at the yellow lakeside building. Man was it sporty out! Instead of trying to pull in a similar fashion to the day previous, I decided to ride with the waves diagonally across the south passage towards the SE corner of Kelly’s. We nailed 15 fish on our first pull. Instead of turning in the troughs then beating the crew going back into the face of the waves trolling, I had the crew pull the boards and we jogged back to the original starting point. Halfway into the 3rd pull repeating this process we had our 36 fish that went 108 lbs at the cleaners. Traditional 40 jets again with the stingers 40-50 back.
