First trip post in a while. Had a good day this past weekend with these guys. Ended up with 3 fish in the 24-26” range and quite a few keeps to go with them. Caught all of our fish on @downsouthlures big smooths and super models. I have a few days left open during the summer months for whoever is ready to catch some. • • • Capt.

A couple of good ones while pre fishing for the latest tournament. Had 1 just under 8lbs, 7.5,7,7,6.5,6 and a few 5 pounders to go with it. Saw a big school this day, pulled past them about a 100 yards and hoped out and caught a few. Also saw a fish when we accidentally ran over them that may have been a potential state record. No exaggeration, this fish I witnessed was easily between 34-36 inches. Lord only knows how much she weighed. Hopefully one day I’ll get to meet her. All fish were caught on: @waterloo_rod_company_ (Carbon Mag 6’6”) & (Ultra Mag 6’6”) @coastalbrewbaits (platinum Ice 6” Dart) @heddon_lures (One Knocker) ‼️Text or call to book‼️ • • • Capt.
