    Four ft waves,rain and howling winds for the days we fished.Tough conditions to say the least.Thanks to spot lock we set up and drifted 7 to 8 inch sucker to wind blown breaks and weed beds picking up a few fish in each spot.
    The biggest smallie came in at 22 inch 6 lbs even.Biggest eye we got was 26.5 .
    The fish puked up 5inch perch and were packed with them.Will be back up in a week or two and it should be on fire.

    Looks like you got the whole “posing with fish” down much better then in the past.

    Mille Lacs does look a little stubborn in the background though.

    I’m thinking you guys had a ball, wind or no wind.

    Sounds like you’re on Mille Lacs? How big a boat you running in there? Looks similar to the size of mine and I’ve been a wimp about going up there with my boat.
