Got out a little later than I had hoped for, but sometimes it just works out anyways and Sunday it most definitely did! Started on the troll and could only get them to bite one color, compliments of 5150 Dan's custom paint job! :Secret: I can't wait to drag that little beast over the weekend.

Caught 4 trout around 1.5-2lbs, three of which went to a fellow angler who wasn't having much luck. My Team57 buddy Sean aka Fishincrave was out there tubing, so when the wind picked up we met at the courtesy dock and took off for the last couple hours of the day before closing.
Trolled a bit longer before anchoring down and giving both species (cat and trout) a shot and the action started almost as quickly as all four rods got into the water. Two rods went out with mack and the others with a crawler and pb respectively. My pb rod gets slammed and right away I'm thinking good fish just not sure on the species....mid fight my mack rod gets bit ,so Sean grabs it and sets the hook while I milk my fish on 2lb test. What a great start as both fish hit the decks a few minutes later! :Dancing Banana:

I would say another 10 minutes goes by and I miss a quick run....cast right back and it's fish on! Another fat cat hits the deck in less than 45 minutes.

This was one of those days I wish the lake was open another hour, but we made the most of the time we had left and were off the lake by 4pm sharp. Can't wait to get back out!
