I would love to get in on some of these weeknighters as long as they aren't on Thursdays.  Thursday is my late night working and I can't take off early since I am the only one in the office.

That's one of the things we'd need to discuss. I can fish any evening basically as long as I stay on midnights. Obviously my nights off are a little easier on me but not the end of the world if I have to get up a little earlier and smell like a fish when I go to work

Tough sledding at Lacygne yesterday for bass, not much of a surprise considering the bluebird conditions. Lost one that jumped at the outlet, looked to be a 3-4# fish. That was the only green fish we saw all day, aside from what looked like a 6# lm getting hauled away from the outlet in a bucket   

 

Decided to take our frustration out on some crappie, not the same numbers as last year but a dozen thick slabs that went over 12" and a few bonus wipers.

52-55 at the outlet, 42-44 toward the dam. One stack was rolling all day.

When were you out? We launched at noonish and called it around 4:45. If you saw a 21' Phoenix indecisively running up and down the lake, that was us

I'm in deep now, just bought a Deps Slide Swimmer 175 this morning   Been looking for awhile, finally found the right price and the right color and pulled the trigger. Got a Lucky Craft Real Bluegill swimbait that should be here today too. Can't wait to get a chance to cast them off 

Easy spending that boat money!

Easy spending that boat money!

I've been living at work and the money for the slide swimmer was from selling a reel and my baby hardgill, boat money is still there, especially since my wife has gone from making less than 20k a year, to making just shy of 40k a year in the last 2 months 

Sounds like a new Comanchee

Even if I had the money I wouldn't want one.

More like a Z7 or Z8
