      Report: loated the island pond on monday and wednesday o this week, and did good both days. On wednesday i only got 7, biggest being 5.2, right o the shore. it was really mirky, and the ish were way up in the cover. Wednesday was better, I was on the lake by 10:00 and ished until 3:30, and landed 6 ish, mostly 2-3 lbers. Got (and released) my biggest one o that pond, however, at 8.2 lbs.

      Report: So, whats the story on this tournament. Is it really going to happen, i it is, everybody needs to agree on a date. I think that the best time to pull this o would be next saturday morning. How can we have live wells too, I certainly am not going to keep everything I catch i there is any risk that they will die. So, how about next sat morning at about 8:30am in the irst parking lot. Gone Fishin'. Tight lines.
