Cap'n Ron,
The trip
was excellent. The amount of fish varied, obviously, per boat.
Our boat did the best. Our two day total was around two dozen
bass, a couple of gar and one mudfish. The other boats did pretty
good, but overall it was somewhat slow. That was probably more
to do with the water temperature and the fact that we opted to
use artificial lures in most of the boats. The size of fish,
though, was better than below average days around here. We all
know about Danny's 8.5 lb'er, but he also caught a 5 lb'er that
morning. Being from north of the Mason-Dixon line you should
know that a 5 is a real big fish for us. Jason, who was with
me, also caught his biggest fish--a 5 lb'er--albeit on a shiner
(we all told him it doesn't count). I caught a 4.5 lb bass as
well. The other fish caught were upwards of 2.5-3.5 lbs.
Hope to
see you again next year.
