Triple post?

I see this is still cutting up.  Will have to bring it to the boss attention to let them know.

[Capt. BassinLou]

WEST, fish have been documented. Good work. You have jumped to 2nd place knocking Deadeye to 3rd.

Well finally joe and i have some fish to post, last week we were skunked, but today we did a little better,
We fished from 7:00 to 1:00, mostly cloudy, water stained we got 7 in the boat and lost about 4 others, the 1st 2 we got on a gold flake paddle tail, the others were on a junebug fluke.

1st fish for joe, 20 1/4 inch, image is blurry so if it don't count that's ok
he got 4 total
20 1/4 + 13 1/2 + 11 1/2 + 12 = 57 1/4

I got 3 today
15 + 13 1/2 + 18 = 46 1/2

That's awesome!!

Mutt what were you throwing? I love the grass banks.

Hey lou, we tried alot of stuff, frogs, spook etc, but topwater didn't work for me today. the first 2 were caught on a gold flake paddle tail next to the weed edge, the others were on a junebug fluke but in a little deeper water, I also saw some feeding frenzy activity/schooling, but was not able to respond fast enough, this was a new lake for us, so it took awhile to find the fish, we may hit it again tomorrow.

Started new job this week and have been traveling non-stop. Morning is looking clear on my schedule so hopefully can get at least three to round out a 5 fish limit

[rovingmutt]

I was able to get out for a few hours by myself today, fished from 7:00 to 11:30 and caught 7 total, tried mr frog at the 1st light and had 3 small hits on it but no hook ups, went to a  zoom fluke black with gold flakes, that got all my fish today, most were about 8 to 10 feet deep, nothing real big, but alot of fun. 
I had 46 1/2" with 3 fish
adding 2 fish and culling the 13 1/2"
fish added today 15 1/2, 16 1/2. 14 1/2
total now is 15 + 18 + 15 1/2 + 16 1/2 + 14 1/2 = 79 1/2

This has been an ongoing problem and Mike is working on it. So it's not just you.

Well I only managed one hook set before the better judgement/ pain set in.  At least it was a good one.

[Capt. BassinLou]

FishinDaddy and SWEDE both your catches have been documented. FD you jumped up to 5th place and are 1/2" away from a tie with Mutt for 4th.

The second 18".  All of the fish in the afternoon came from Lake Lowery on a Bitter vibe in mardigras color.
