Made the trip to Verdigre Creek with Qtip, Dennis and Josh. We did fairly well catching several fish and working almost the entire fishable public stretch.

Here's some pics:

Just hit the local hole but did manage to catch quite a few fish (they were all pretty small). Tried SB out for a short while but the lake was really murky, did manage a small bass the short while I was there though.

I ended up doing ok with 1 lmb, 14 bluegill, 8 green sunfish, and 30 hybrid sunfish. I have now finally crossed the 2000 mark, hopefully I will be able to get into some more crappie and decent gills before the season is over, I am looking forward to hitting the trout pretty...

Went out with my friend Dennis today to do some wiper fishing, being as I have never caught a wiper I figured that he is the guy to put me onto some.

The fishing was extrememly slow the entire trip and started to heat up a little on our last day. The most fish boated a day between our two boats was 6! The largest fish caught (not by me) was 22lbs.

The fishing was tough and the fish were only doing takes similar to what you would expect a 8" bullhead to do, detection was key...
