Glad it went well. I wondered about the weather down there. We had it pretty rough up here.

We got rained on a little bit on Saturday, but the storms missed us on Sunday. My buddy who does a lot of Crappie fishing felt like the storms moving through did effect the number of fish we were catching. We went long periods without a single bite.

Just got home. Wow what a great time, beatiful weather except for a couple of short rain showers, and a little wind. Learned alot about the lake, and did I feel fairly well for our 1st time on the blood river. We ended up bringing home 72 fish, only a few close to 10" most in that 11-14 range, and I caught 1 white that weighed 2.4 lbs. We probably threw back 20 or so under 10". All the whites were caught on brush piles and deep chanels. The last 2 days we fished mostly banks, caught all blacks at or near spawning. I'll post a few pics when I get them developed. I'd like to give a plug for the resort we stayed at, Kentucky Beach Resort is a well run place. Joe and his wife where excellent hosts while we where there. Hopefully if it works, we'll be back I a few weeks.

We had a great time at Mansard Island. It's in a nice area and the boys fished the ponds at the resort after we came in from the lake. We kept 50 crappie and a 3 1/2 lb smallmouth my son caught and wants to get mounted. The storms just missed us too, but it was windy. Our 2 biggest crappie weighed 1-8. There was a lot of laughing and cutting up when we spent the day with Richard Williams.
The boys had fun with him.
