1 fish 2 personal bests!
« on: May 01, 2012, 08:27 AM »
Last Saturday, earliest I've ever caught a striper, and the earliest I've ever caught a keeper, this is shaping up to be the best season ever!
I fish, because the voices in my head tell me to!

Sounds good! I'll send ya a text, yeah made it to winni but didn't fish the derby, went the week after and had the place to our selves, went out with Yo Adrien charters, had a blast caught 14 lakers, biggest 4.6 I have a post on ice shanty back in February, if you wanna fish Winni and catch fish go with him, he's a great guide and an even better guy! oh yeah my buddy Lenny caught this last night!

Great fish.  Congrats.    I never understood the fogging out her or on ice shanty. I know people want to keep their secret spots but it still comes down to skill in fishing and not just the location.    None the less great fish

Adrien is the best on the lake, there is no doubt.
