Notes

Karl, Bryce, and I rented a boat on Marsh-Miller Lake and spent most of the afternoon catching small crappie and bluegill while rowing around the lake. Unfortunately, the lady that rented the boat to us explained that to start the engine, always pull out the choke, pump the hose several times to force gas to the engine, then start it. Well, it started when we left the dock, but we spent the rest of the day trying to start it and not being able to. So, we rowed.

While I was able to catch a bunch of small crappie, Karl had opposite luck and caught a bunch of bluegills and maybe a couple crappie.

I tried fishing a handful of various big streamers, including a bunny leech, in hopes of catching some northerns that the boat lady said had been biting. Nothing.

I was able to dial in my Wisconsin accent though. I probably annoyed a bunch of people on the lake while doing it, too. :)
