Starting to think you're right 'bout the dry hands thing Larry. The finger tips got awfully cold today. I wear a pair of fingerless gloves w/ the pull over cover deal, but I can't fish with the cover down. The fish didn't mind the cold today though, or the mud. Me, OCB and my dad got into them pretty good, even with the wind. We waited till the 40 plus mph stuff cleared out and got on the water at 8:00 am. We had to fish where the wind would allow, ended up fishing Poplar, Clover and some of the Slade Road side. Ended up catching 60 or so between the three of us with one over 14" and several 12"-13". Only kept a few. Not sure what the water temp or water depth was, my fishfinder up front went dead on me. It's always something. Didn't see another soul on the lake.......Lightweights.:D

Good job guys, wished I could have made it out. I may get out Friday & Sunday.

Starvin

We were looking for ya. Just figured you were smarter than us. Man, this last month and a half has been unreal hasn't it? Don't know how long it can continue, but I'm fishing it till it stops.
