Took the day off again, Got out about 8:30, Was suppose to meet PECO out there I will let him explain that one. It was nice when I got out but as the morning went on the wind was a lot stronger then they predicted (a lot).Got only one Striper 21" so after it got to much to paddle into. I decided to fish some spots not in the wind, I caught like 13 Pickeral all over 24" the biggest was 30" lost at least 5 or 6 due to snappage. 2 LMB were caught under a dock I'm guessing a male and a female. 1st was 12" 2nd was 16.5" a little over 2lbs. For the weather conditions it was a very good Day.

Okay, so I drove 55 miles from Avon to Hamburg Cove with my inflatable Hobie i9s. I arrived 20 minutes after Tim. He was already on the water, waiting for me in the channel of the small cove. I unpacked my Hobie, inflated it with the hand pump, clipped on the seat and went to grab the Mirage Drive from my trunk. . . and realized that I forgot to bring it. Embarassed Yes, I'm an idiot. Confused After I told Tim to head into the big cove without me, I tried paddling the Hobie, but without the Mirage Drive installed, too much water would slosh up through the hole where it goes. A gentleman from the Hamburg Cove Yacht Club graciously offered to help if he could, but there weren't any Hobies stored at the club. I ended up shopping at Cabela's on my way home.

You'd appreciate that I got some striper sized plugs and some Slug-gos! Very Happy
