Great day today

[Brian D]

So my 16 year old is NOT an avid fisherman. He likes to go here and there. Well we out late this morning. Turned into a special day. First day to drive the boat. He did a good job as I knew he would. Then fished for a few hours. His best day fishing since relocating up here 4 years ago. He caught his first Smallie that went 3lbs, then his PB at 3lbs 7oz. Every fish he caught today was over 2lbs. And he out fished me. I think I was more excited than he was today.  Gotta love making these memories. Today we keyed in on the Shad. All of his were on Underspin swimbaits. Size made the difference. 2.8s. I caught a couple on tandem willow Spinnerbait and a couple on swimbaits.

Those are some dandy fish! Congratulations

Looks like a great day for sure!  That smallie looks like he engulfed a 12" softball, good grief!

[Brian D]

Yeah. Every one of the fish we caught looked like they just got done with Thanksgiving Dinner.

Congrats, some great fish!  I like that pea-green stained water too.

I was actually pleasantly surprised. I thought we were going to find much clearer water. We were a little ways south of the dam.

Brian, good day for fishing and memories.
