Notes

Tough day of fishing. Tried throwing everything and fished every sort of location imaginable. Had a couple of fish suck the 3" and 4" wacky rigged senkos right off the o-ring. Caught the LMB in a bank of grass, 1' of water at most.

Fishing partners also caught a 13" LMB in a different but similar area (grass bank). He also caught a Smallie on a small chartreuse in-line spinner.
