I needed a break so set my trolling motor on #2 and set Ipilot to follow the south shore back to the east and threw out a 6" Producer to troll while I had a snack and rest. Got maybe 50 yds and BAM! the rod was bendo. Turned out to be a big chunk LMB 4-5 pounds. After that I did some LMB hunting and it was pretty slow. Just one here and one there. Off the water by 11:30.

The quality of stripers is improving. They were all real chunky and fought like freight trains. Average was 3-4 pounds. I'll be skipping the weekend and report after Monday.

damn i shouldve went this morning. decided not to go with all the thunderstorms at 2am. did you get them all on lures?
