Chris,
Matt said that you did not get on the lake until about 6 pm? IF so, I was already gone at about 5pm or so. We probably passed one another en route! I ended up launching from the creek that flows in just north of the harbor. Justin nailed a bunch of carpies bowfishing. No fish taken from the creek, even though it was white-hot there just 3 days ago! I had heard of hundreds being caught there (my friend and his lady caught 30 WB the other night). I saw a wade angler with one WB and a large kitty (9-10#) on my way out the creek around 11am. I ended up catching 2 kitties on chubs near the tulies (one 2# and one 6-8#). Saw only a few tiny little gillies or WB chase my grub. While trying to get out, I popped my floattube on some barbed wire or Russian olive bushes....I won't put my pontoon in at that spot! I've only had 2-3 leaks/punctures in 20 years of tubing.....grrrr! Had a lot to do tonight...so gave my fishes away to a guy at the take-out. I doubt he was gonna have any luck in that cold creek water. Good day, great weather, noooo W#&%!!!!! Too bad we couldn't have hooked up...maybe next time!
