Addicted to fishing!

[taxidermist]

The wife and I have been dealing with colds this past week. Coughing hacking etc, we should have purchased stock int Kleenex.

Well the pretty weather yesterday got the best of use.

We just had to get out n the water. So at 3:00pm we headed to Leadhill.

The idea was if we were going to feel like crap we could feel like crap on the water just as well as here at home.

Once at a place I knew would hold fish we found the water temp at 49F. I decided to throw crankbaits and what a good idea it was! We caught alot of small kentuckies and smallmouth, almost one after another we stopped counting at 50 no keepers but darn good fishing no matter where you fish.

About 7:00pm as we came out of the cove and into the main lake, I caught a walleye, again to short, then she caught a walleye over the next hour we caught and released 17 walleye with one keeper at 22 inches.

My great and lovely wife caught it she was pumped up over the keeper.

So ya know what we are having for dinner tonight!!!

Not to waste anything on a mountable fish I am skinning it in a few minutes to mount and then will fillet the meat for a great meal this evening.

I have been anxious to play with the new 565 Humminbird fish finder I sure like it and its way better than the Humminbird 10 on the drivers seat.

I can say even with a cold virus fishing did us good.
