Not a lot to report it was a very slow night. Blasted off and ran down river to our first stop. Caught a monster drum there with nothin else. Moved on down I finally hooked up on a good smallie. Thought we found some but that was the only keeper. Ray caught several more but they were all short. Moved around after dark trying to catch some largemouth but not a bite. Went looking for spots, Ray puts our 2nd keeper in the boat a 12” spot at midnight. Keep running around with only some very small spots. About 130 I finally hooked up with a good fish thought it was a smallie the way it was jumping but it was a good largemouth. We kept fishing hoping to cull the spot but ran out of time. Got back to the ramp and to my surprise we got 1st with big smallie almost 4lb and big largemouth 6+. Caught fish on jigs and spinnerbaits. What few they were it’s alway tough on the river when they shut the water off. Great to hang out and shoot the bull with everyone great group of guys. Thanks to Patrick and Earl and the rest of the committee for putting these on.
