Hi Folks, Got this site out of In-Fisherman and figured it was well worth checking out. I'm very anxious to get into all of the forum information as time permits but just wanted to say, "Hi" to all for now. I've fished since I was 7 years old and am now 61. I live between Madison and Milwaukee on a great blue gill lake. Hope to talk to many of you soon. Most sincerely, Bob "Beagleman"

I fished the Castle Rock Flowage on Monday. Had to get through 30" of ice but only found crappies. Took home 16 dandies over 10" and a pile of whitebass. The best is yet to come. Thanks for all the kind words. Looking forward to sharing some time here now that I've found this site. Sincerely, Bob

Sharon, Haven't forgotten the folks at B.B. but I see you too are from the frozen tundra, so you know what the fall is all about up this way. Getting ready for the big freeze is always a time consuming job especially if you burn wood in the winter. I just heard they are getting some really nice gills on Lake Wabesa in Madison right now and have been for the past couple of weeks. If you're from that area contact Gene at D & S Baits and he'll put you in the area. Keep in touch and thanks for the wake-up post. Sincerely, Bob
