Congratulations to you all.
Fish On


Last night I was overwhelmed thinking about what Bill and his family must be going thru and to see him drive down to the ramp and greet us coming in was about as good as it could get yesterday. Last night I called Stephen Elmer up and asked him what he was going to do with the fish. Since he had one on the wall from 1984 about the same size over 10 lbs and 27" from the Inland Sea I mentioned giving it to Bill for him to smoke on his awesome smoker. He thought it was a great idea. So I called Bill up and gave him the wonderful news. Merry Christmas Bill and this one is for Cecilia!

That's a nice fish! Congratulations.

Did anyone hear about the size and weight for that one that Al (The Master)'s friend caught on Sunday. I was impressive too. And that one was caught on a beautiful calm day, which is never my best fishing days.

The lake record will fall soon if this keeps up. That fish is as wide as it is long. Congrats Randy and crew...

Hey Ken,

Saw the Master today pulling away from the dock and asked about his big fish last Sunday. He told us it was 7 3/4 lbs. Wonderful fish! He turned out to be one of my former customers at Vt Home and Marine. Small world!

Troutcrazy . Depth depends on the day . Earlier in the week at Fishville flat calm the bait was jumping out of the water and today Light&Variable was taking them at 100ft. FIND THE GROCERIES and you can find the fish.

Here is Ron Digitroll .....Smile!
