So here's the story.......

I have a very enthusiastic group for today.....so I get on the NOAA forecast yesterday morning for Saturday,
and it says 10-20 mph, going to 15-25 mph, chance t'storms and showers.....so I call the guy and tell him
that it doesn't look good, but let me check the 4 pm update......SO I do that, and it is slightly better, but still
not great, so I tell my wife that I think I need to move these guys....and she says....why don't you wait until
the morning....so then I call the guys, and they say, we want to come, its not that bad a drive, if we can't go
we'll go out to breakfast.......LET'S WAIT UNTIL MORNING.......

OK...call Gerb (my mate today)....tell him we are in...........

SO I check the 4 AM update today, winds are knocked down to 10-15 mph, no rain on doppler, guys are
early all is GREAT....so I tell them....the fishing hasn't been very good of late for walleye at all, but the lake
trout fishing has, so lets slide out west, try for 'eyes for a while and see if the lake rolls as expected....if not,
we may move out to try the lakers.....group is cool with that...just wants to catch a fish....

So we set up and mark some good stuff 8 miles from the harbor, and pop a walleye really quick, not big, but
a good start, ......I tell the guys, Man, last week in the Con Club derby we would have killed for a couple of  fish
on Saturday....and we get a sheepshead, then another, then another, then another, then another.....I tell my
Gerb who is driving for us, we need to get the heck out of here...so he turns us out, but all of the sudden,
bam....3 more 'eyes in the box....now I'm NOT moving....

Long story short, we box 18 walleye today, plus a bonus brown trout, and easily lose 8-10 other 'eyes, and
land a couple of smallmouth in the 5lb range!!  On a calm lake!!  Unbelieveable!!     10 color with a big green
chatterstick, DW WD's in copper watermelon and buffalo bill of the 50-60 riggs; a couple on a big watermelon
harness on the slide at 160; a couple on the chicken wing DW SS; 145 no ring and the MOJO DW SS on a big
slide, mag ring, 125.  AWESOME!!
