Last Upper End Report For A Couple Weeks

[rps]

Tomorrow the wife and I are headed to Maine by way of her Mother's in New Jersey. On the way home we will detour slightly to Savannah to visit younger daughter. I hope you take advantage of the top water bite while I am gone, but leave the walleyes for me.

I went out today without my top water rod. I had decided to fish only walleyes in the cool dim part of the morning. While I pulled a woorm harness I watched bass after bass explode on shad. What is worse the chasing lasted later this morning. They were still busting at 8:00.

I caught one 19 inch walleye on a flat break into the channel - 12 to 25 feet in only a few yards.

Maine has some excellent smallmouth fishing, are you going to be packing a rod?

RPS drive safe and come back in one piece. Have a good time. Duck.

I got to go to Maine when I was a youngster, 50's, and we fished the Kennebec and some pond. I caght several smallies out of the river, but nothing in the pond, read lake, "Pond"? I reamenber a big pickeral following my lure and ettimg my day. I fished hard hoping for another one that would take, but it never happened. We did catch some white perch and to this day I have no idea what they were.
