Location: MILWAUKEE,WISCONSIN		Just wanted to see if anyone has put their boat in the water yet. I was out this past sunday with a friend trolling in milwaukee harbor and caught quite a few brown trout.

Location: NE/IL		I was out of Burns Ditch / Port of Indiana a week ago Friday and we had a ball catching coho. Just good to get out. Doesn't sound like we'll get much fishing in this weekend with the weather coming in. Oh well, grand kids birthday parties anyway.

We put under Castle Rock today with David AKA Bottombouncer on L-L.
The funny part is not even 10 minutes later I boated the first resident male On a blue 1/8oz jig with a couple of splitshots for added weight and a Lake Shiner.

The action was steady and the water surface calm, overcast sky and temps in the upper 30's F. Boaters around were hooking them too.
We decided to move a bit in order to find better bite and bigger fish and the scene on the shore was pretty nasty - piles of dead carp just left there to rot and stink the place - obviously the guy who did it doesn't care in the least for th ecomfort of his fellow anglers...



Well pee on him as the other boaters were...
LOL
Dave wasn't so lucky and his first fish came a bit later.
Well I guess he was lacking practice after a long winter on the ice, but after that he just nailed them! Of course he did not like the fact that they only ranged 11"-14" and desided to move downstream to look for the bend in the river well it was pretty scary seeing all those stumps and areas close to 1FOW only! A few of the rock piles were almost showing. So we thought we'd better move back up. Along the current break we were up for quite a heart thumper!

That screen had probably 10 FishID's a square inch of LCD. We were all wound up about getting them... well until we figured that "they" were all sorts of baitfish and carp and the current swallowed a handful of jigs from each of us... so back to the side we hawl. We kept getting them and some of the fish were quite surprisingly aggressive!

That guy shook his head vigorously to spit out 3 Lake Shiners! None of which were mine... So they were feeding pretty healthy, I kept hoping for a Granny Northern on my 6" Golden Shiner rig but maybe next time. Dave wanted to go for that 3hr ride home ahead of him and I could perfectly understand him - no keepers but a wonderful day fishing! A new friendship and lots of good memories.
. With "no quotes" we had close to 60 fish between us today.

Location: Sth/side Chicago		Almost had my shed deposited in the water this weekend...Nice wind down by the cottage friday(50-60mph). Ice was out on the lake though, nothing like 60 degree air temps and high wind to get the sof water going.. Didn't get the boat in the water though, lot of cleanup of the shed instead... A friend who did get out raised a Musky on Webster lake in Indiana, but thats a topic for Musky First, not here.lol...
