Sport picked me up and took me out in his boat on a small Bass Pond . We hit the water at about 1pm and it was hot and very sunny but we did pretty well with a combined total of about 7 or 8 pickerel with a few bite offs and around 25 LMB . Largest LMB .. Largest Pickerel (Sport caught it but...

12-12-09 Diamond and Wagamons Sport and I got a late start but we had the canoe on the water at Diamond by about 11am . What we found was VERY depressing . Grass everywhere and dirty water .
