Man you had a great day! Congratulations! I feel great if I can catch at least 1 keeper. lol I like of what I can see of your boat and I like your set up. What make is your boat? Thanks for the report and pics.
Merry Christmas to you too.
Good job pete, I should have been there right beside you instead of catching all them crappie on norman today.
Looks like you had another banner day on the water!!! Merry Christmas
its a 2009 Key west 177SK. not a true skiff, but not a deep V either. have a friend that helped me TONS with setting it up right when i first got it....more like he did all the work. in exchange for his services, he has the rights to my boat anytime i am not using it. since i fish with him a lot both offshore on his boat, and on the lakes on mine, its not an issue at all.
Ill be out on the water somewhere with a good buddy of mine/popular charter boat captain from oak island on Monday. no pressure. reports will follow![]()

I have caught a lot of fish on a trip and go back the next day with very high expectations only to have my feelings get hurt. You did good. Hard to do back to back.

My hat is off to you pulling that many lines. I have been pulling lead and downriggers for 30 years and never could do 10 lines. Most the time I fish by myself or with an inexperienced crew. I fish Norman all the time but very seldom below 30 ft on the riggers. Most of my trolling is on the northern part of the lake (above 150) .
