bigugli Posted November 2, 2008 Report Posted November 2, 2008 Grabbed a bucket of minnows and met up with a buddy on the Welland r. Found a spot where a small feeder empties into the river and hoped for crappie, perch or smallies. The action was pretty heavy for most of the afternoon, but not with the target species. There were a few nice perch, a couple of dink bass, and hundreds upon hundreds of these: There were probably 3 year classes schooled up on the one spot. A half hour of one size followed by a half hour of another size, etc.... Gillies from 6"= 9 1/2". Kept a few fish ranging from 8-10" for a feed or two. Despite the weather being a bit off, not a bad afternoon.

bigugli Posted November 2, 2008 Author Report Posted November 2, 2008 Man, you eat fish every night or what? lol Looks tasty! At least 3 days a week Me, the kids, and the puppies. Actually, we had a shore lunch as part of a fun shore derby. Needed fish for 10 people. OF course, we had a few donors.
