Couldn't make it up last night, are the Thursday nighters a go?

CONOR. NOW IS THE TIME FOR OUR MERCER IMPRESSION GOPRO SHOW.

Dude not even. Lol. More like 3

We were all flying around the lake when we fished the Thursday nighter last summer.

So...didn't think I was going to get out yesterday, but by noon I was done with work and went anyway. Clinton is ice-free and wide open, but it was way too rough, so I continued south to Lone Star (which is also wide open as well). Roughest I've ever seen the main lake at LS. Got out and was checked by a CO before I even started the motor. First time since 2013 actually, lol. Ran across the lake to the southeast arm, and to my surprise ol' Mr. Kehde was pulling out. Good to see him out there. Which by the way, Clayton, when he talks about fishing a "shallow mud flat" in his blog at LS, he's definitely talking about that cove, not the homes cove. It was way too shallow for me so I bailed and fished the windblown steep bank to the right of the dam. Stayed out in about 18 feet of water getting my jerk on. Pro Blue KVD was the ticket. Had a window between 3:15-3:45 and boated 6 Lone Star Specials off the same bank in a few passes. Nothing to brag about, but it was fun raising fish deep on a jerkbait in 38 degree water. They were shorts but they are definitely eating, fat little turds. Couldn't pass up the day and glad I got out.

I think he mentioned on Facebook he was at Douglas State Lake. But judging by the Corps ice reports, there is plenty of open water to be had elsewhere too.

Considered taking today off, but not in the mood to deal with 20-30mph winds anywhere. May end up taking Friday, though.

I know it may be kind of out of the way, but you might try the storage spot at the four corners by Hillsdale. My dad has stored his boats there for almost 15 years now, and they are pretty reasonable with plenty of outdoor spots. They are private owners and may be able to cut a deal for that time frame.

True story! Already have the plaque for my backseat made with Conor's name on it. Yeah, I did the same thing with mine. Originally was going to get the 53DV, then Conor talked me into the widescreen 7.3" 73DV at the last minute. Only way to do the Maps/DownVu split screen. Cheers to the 2015 season boys!

73DV w/ Lake Vu HD. Ordered it a week and a half ago, forgot that it's not actually available until 2/6. Patiently waiting

Late report from Wolf Creek Saturday. Nice day, but like Coty said, it was tough. Million boats at the outlet, didn't see any fish there all day. Focused our effors in the trees and paid off (well, at least not for me). A buddy of mine and his wife were working the edges of the trees, and from a distance could see her outfishing him (and everyone), ten to one throwing a Shad Rap. All whites, but it's always fun watching a hot chick catch fish. All of us were throwing jigs in the trees, and my buddy caught the three fish of the day. Two biggest at 3.5, and 4.38#. Those two fish were on back to back casts too. Thought it was going to break the 5# mark for sure, but still a toad. Black and blue was the color. Still can't believe I got skunked but, it happens. - 4.38 Didn't make it to the boat show Sunday. Worked on spicing up my console/dash, getting it ready for my new Garmin unit. As well as cut the piece for my back deck extension. Ran to Cabela's for my RAM mount, and walked out with a new Lew's MH combo. You know how it goes.

Tinberg just texted me. Gonna fish behind you guys around ALL day

Welp, here's the usual weekend Wolf Creek roll call. Anyone else getting out tomorrow? I'll be there by 7:30. Probably gonna hit the sports show Sunday morning.

Hahahaha-my thoughts exactly.

Holy Buffalo, Batman! Gross.

I think I'm gonna get up there with my dad

Yeah I mean, unless everyone chooses Stockton for the weekend of April 3rd, we're pretty much out for the get together...but I'm just using this Johnny's get together as an excuse to hang out!

I'll be there.
