    Monday afternoon my daughter and I hit the river for a few hours. It was the first time since March that I’ve been on the water. We didn’t find the walleyes we where looking for, but had some great white bass and channel cat action, as well as these two rockets! The larger one taped at 39″, one of the largest I’ve ever caught. Unfortunatley, I was not able to revive her after a prolonged battle on light line.

    I thought you gave up fishing!

    It seems like a lifetime since I’ve been able to get out Brian. Life got in the way of enjoying life for a while, but you can’t keep an old river rat off the river forever!

    I’m glad to see you are back in action. The eyes are still going, just not in all the old places we used to find them. Leeches have really been the ticket lately. Think shallow. Congrat’s on the 39 incher that is a real dandy.
