Same down this way Jeffrey. I couldn't have went anyway, unless I took my Jon Boat. Bearing failure and it scarred my spindle pretty badly. Just checked them last fall, and religiously grease them. keep those things checked fellows.

Good looking fish Jack.......we worked hard for what we got on Saturday but some nice fish were mixed in........had ambitions of getting back out Sunday but it was a washout up here..........our water temps are pretty close to what you're reporting as well........
