well me clay and my buddy chris set out on merrill creek today at 6:30am the fog was super thick so we started to the right in the wood didnt see much happeneing so we headed for the rocks. a little while later i get a hit and set the hook, the fish then come mach1 for the surface and launched its monster self into the air spitting my hook at me. all of us look at each other and say HOLY MOLY! it was the biggest smallie any of us have ever seen. it should have easily went 4-5lbs without exaggerating. anyway the rest of the day was slow one here one there. clay picked one up by the pump house and one by the wood. i got 2 in the wood. my biggest went 4lbs 1oz also got a 2.5lber. after catching the 4lb and thinking back we all agreed that the smallie i lost i think could have eaten my 4lber largy. chris unfortunately got skunked but were hoping to make up for it tomorrow at carnegie.

i love the lake but i need to learn more about the deep fishing in it. definitely will be gong back
