Thanks, I had the day you dream about. I caught 15 keepers 15" min. I stayed in the north east river all day only using my gas motor to idle from the ramp to a cut about 1 mile down then used the trolling motor all day The fishing down there for largemouth bass can be awesome
there was 2 other tournaments at this ramp yesterday the one event had a 23lb 5 fish limit the other had 20lb for 5 fish.
I dropped a 4.5 lb fish with about 15 mins to go that would have put me over the 20 lb mark..
