[Mikey topaz]

Did a little bit of scoutin around today headed over to dows to get bait this mrng took the long way around to check out diffrent sections of the lake coves are fishable now main lake needs few more days, i did stumble upon new section of the lake back near brady bridge walked all the way out in search of some deep water deepest i could find was about 2 1/2 ft lol set the tip ups up and had a flag go up but wasnt runnin if i had to guess it was a perch that couldnt swallow the bait. Walkin back to the truck i scared a good size school of perch stopped an started jiggin was pretty funny to watch them in the hole come and hit the jig lol packed it up and i was off again got a call from duck or bleed up north near pines lake nothin was frozen over he jumped in the car shot down and salvaged the day at the good ole honey hole there i watched duck or bleed chase the flags gettin himself back into the grooves of things lol ended up there for three hrs ya kin about ten or twelve snot rockets and one nice lmb about 3 lbs cant wait to hit the hardwater at the meet and greet with some of you guys and just like eddie said you aint gonna catch em sittin on the couch! Cmon out guys!
