I did see a bunch of yoyo's out in one area where the water seemed pretty clear which the person had alot of catfish. I saw one crappie caught.

I also got my motor prop caught in a gill net while I was motoring wide open. The guy put it out across the lake. Why do they not run those suckers parallel to the bank? It was out in front of one of the houses on the southern end and I noticed that someone was outside watching me trying to untangle the damn thing out of my prop. I bet he is a mad dude about right now. I took my knife and cut the net up.. It scared me for a second or two when I heard my motor bogging down;I had to release the throttle real quick...:D

Hey Rusty:

Sounds like a tough day. I fished in the wind and rain yesterday and made a couple trips back to the dock to duck lightning but I was off today.

Be sure and pull your prop if you haven't already to make sure there's no string or anything from that net behind it or it can damage your shaft seal.
