NdWent to visit my aunt and uncle at their cottage on Rogers Lake last Wednesday so that the next morning I could go out nd fish bright and early. The next morning I got up at 4:45 and paddled out. I started throwing buzzbaits but quickly learned it was not top water that they wanted. So I started throwing jigs and assorted worms in about 6 to 7 fow. I began hitting big fish and that was the tend for the rest of the day. I got my biggest in about 7 fow and my second biggest in about 9. The biggest bass was 22 inches and the second biggest was just over 20. Here are sounds pictures that I forgot to resize...my bad.

Nice, Ryan! The bite was definitely better before the water heated up. I'd love to do an evening to morning trip there.

I fished a bit at night off the dock and had a big hit under our swim platform. It seemed almost every swim platform held fish. We should go before I move in on Friday.

Thanks, just wish he wasn't so old. He needed to put on another pound or two, then I'd have a pb. I mean look at the mouth on that thing.

There are some holes my grandpa showed me plus the places i caught fish I knew I'd catch fish at. That is why I got my kayak towed by the ski boat around the lake to save time.
