    Yeah looks like you caught a nice mess. Did you use minnows or jigs? My 1st time in the brush (which was this year) I used minnows and ran out.

    I used minnows and almost ran out. Its just a little frustrating keeping the boat in the right spot with all the brush. First time I thought it would be nice to have a shallow water anchor!

    I ran up into markum (?) and caught a ton of short fish. Just off the pump-action buoys however just outside the cove with the beach, from the drop-off out, marked a bunch of fish, managed to get a few to bite all crappie but shorter than I'm willing to keep. Water temp was 68
