If it hadn't been for Cast having a dream , I would have. I shook him awake and then made him go outside. I stepped out onto the front stoop and looked at the Sky. Lots of stars were twinkling and it was clear as a bell but still dark. I got our morning underway and waited for Beth to get up. I hooked up the boat and we got underway. we would be using the secondary boat ramp again. I wasn't looking forward to it as it is still a precarious experience using it. They fixed it with number 4 gravel and its hard on tires. Its also easier to fall of the side of the ramp and get your trailer lodged. Thankfully we haven't had that problem yet. After our usual socializing, we hit the boats. Beth and I took off at "Blast Off " and hit our favorite bank. It was starting to look like a beautiful day to be on the water. The water was still with no wind blowing, making boat handling a cinch. Beth was able to use her Senko's both T-Rigged and Wacky style, weightless. We hadn't been on our bank very long when I had a strike on a Berkley Power Worm . I don't know if the fish had the bait all the way from the bank or if it hit at the boat. It was just there and I set the hook. Apparently the little 14 incher had the bait for awhile as he had swallowed the hook. Unfortunately , Beths surgery skills were lacking and the fish died before we could get it in the live well. It was bleeding badly when we got it into the boat. Well One fish even dead was better than no fish at all. We continued to hammer the bank until 9 AM. One more 11 incher liked my power worms and we set him free. Beth caught numerous Rock Bass and Gills but no Bass. It was time to go so we loaded up and went to the parking lot. We held Weigh in at the Shelter House above the beach. No one was using it for a picnic or anything else. Nick Kelly was first to weigh in with one fish at 1.90 Pounds. Sam and Mike (Spoonplugger) Skinner also weighed in one at 1.28 pounds. Ron Butler had 3 fish that tipped the scales at 4.28 Pounds. Wilbur Moore and Darren Posten had 2 fish at 3.32 Pounds. Geno (Geno100) and Katrina Seegur had one that went 1.28 pounds. Zack Crabbe had one fish that weighed .086 Pounds. John and Carol Bircher had a 17 incher that weighed 2.40 Pounds their total for a 3 fish bag weighed 5.56 Pounds. It was really nice to be able to sit in the Shade of the Shelter House and not have to stand out in the sun on the asphalt Parking Lot. Beth took the pictures and I took the notes. Big Bass was won by Carol Bircher First place was won by John and Carol Bircher Second place was won by Ron Butler It had been a gorgeous day to be on the water. 24 of us enjoyed the outing even though only 11 fish were weighed in. Hopefully our new ramp will be completed by next week and we can get back to our normal routine. Beth and I are going to put new bunks on our trailer tomorrow morning and then head to Reynoldsburg and "Gander Mountain" to spend my Fathers day gift card. So that's why this is a rather hurried up report posted on a Saturday evening. Have a great week everyone....Jim and Beth John and Carol Bircher : Big Bass and First Place Ron Butler: Second Place Nick Kelly Mike Skinner (Spoonpluggin) Katrina Seegur Last Edited By: jim rempel 06/27/2009 22:01.

Posts: 858 06/28/2009 07:32	Congrats to John and Carol, thats a nice looking bunch of fish! Thanks for the report Jim, another good one. I'm with Jonny on the 1 fish thing ( I might not be grown up, but I'm OLD ) In our defense, we fish lake Erie and are spoiled, we don't have 1 fish days. So it's hard to take, even when enjoying the day with friends... let alone fishing a tourney.

Posts: 2056 06/28/2009 08:49	Seems that this year has given me less fishing time. I can't go by myself anymore. Doctors and Beths orders. So the tourneys we fish are it. We like to win of course but it isn't the be all end all for us. We get to enjoy each others company and the company of a great bunch of people as well. We don't do much in the winter so our summer is our fun. You just never know when its going to be your last summer so we enjoy them while we can ....Jim Last Edited By: jim rempel 06/28/2009 08:53.

Posts: 1127 06/28/2009 15:54	Great report Jim. Catch sure was down from last week. Although that was the first 4 species day we have had (to bad none of them species were bass). I'm pretty sure that lake is the reason I drink. Well plus the stupid stuff my kids do. Then theres work. Can't forget about the annoying stuff my wife does. A bad excuse is better than no excuse!!!!

Posts: 2056 06/29/2009 06:35	On our visit to Gander Mountain yesterday:: We got a couple bags of jig trailers, I got some different looking tubes and Beth got some Senko look alikes. Seems that the "Black Magic " line of soft plastics no longer exists. They seem to have replaced it and are packaging the same products under the name of Gander Mountain. depending on size of the actual bait, they are packaging either 15 or 20 to a bag for $4.99. ....We had a good time, and Bth took me to lunch at "Red Lobster"....jim

While I still go by myself, it's harder to do but the good news is I have enjoyed fishing more and appreciate the time I have on the lake more than ever before. You get to a point where you realize your time is a gift from God. I also appreciate Joe and Bill letting me go with them, it makes it a lot easier for me, even though I have to hear their crap about what great fishermen they are. They both get a kick out of beating the "old man". LOL

I have had a great time every time we have been fishing together. Now If I could just teach you how to cast a spinning outfit, so we could fish more, and get lures out of trees less!!!!! Bill You know I couldn't resist!

Bill You know I couldn't resist! Bill, we always have a good time together. Believe it or not, I'm getting worse with that spinning outfit, not better. I got hung up in the tree with it last time Joe and I went out and he said "good cast"! He said "I seen a bass up there a little earlier". I still don't understand how you stop the stupid thing or how you run the line through your fingers to feel a fish. I knew people who could cast them better than I can my baitcaster. I think by 2020, I will be better with it.

It's called feathering the line. Not like feathers from a bird in a tree, but rather light touching of the line. I don't touch the line much when fishing spinning tackle.

Bill could have told me that but he's having too much fun laughing at me. :)
