First things first.  I'm a nedaholic and not ashamed.

Put in at Orleans Trail about 30 minutes before sunrise and got off the water at 1:30 pm.  Started throwing a Whopper Plopper and a spinnerbait . Caught 2 on the WP and 2 on the spinnerbait.  After the sun got up we made a move and switched to the ned.  Used PBJ and green pumpkin.  We caught 63 total fish for the day with 11 keeper bass, 2 keeper walleye (one 18 inches and one 17) and an 11 inch crappie.  Also caught 4 drum.  Everything else was largemouth, smallmouth and 1 kentucky.  The biggest keeper bass was an 18 inch lmb.   We also had a 17 1/2 lmb, a 17 inch lmb, a 17 inch smallmouth, and 16 1/2 lmb.  Best 5 would have been in the  13 to 14 pound range.  Gravel pockets in 4 to 10 feet of water seemed to be the best.  Water temps were 67 to 69.  Pretty good clarity but still not the norm for Stockton.  As the day progressed the wind really picked up, but we managed to find places that were fishable.   All-in-all, a really fun day.  Only have 1 picture to share and it is the 17 inch smallmouth.  Not sure what happened to my phone but the battery went dead.

I was going to post my 9 bass and one walleye my wife and I caught tonight, but after reading the day you had it pales in comparison. Congrats on a great day. We will try again tomorrow and hope to have half as much luck as you did.

Great day guys!  Stockton has that ability to provide those special trips where, once in a while, if you're in the right place at the right time, you get to go catchin and not just go fishing.  Glad it happened to you!  Thanks for sharing. 

Is this fun or what!
