Thumbs up Lake Hopatcong Walleye 5/20

Hit the big lake again with Outofline. Launched the boat at 8pm and off we went. Got on some Eyeball action around 945 or so, Matt just couldn't come up with an Eye, rough night for him. He did hook 2 nice Hybrids for the night, just when I was about to net the first 1, he dove down into the weeds and popped off. 4-5 lb fish gone. 2nd Hybrid was pretty hyper and did not like the net at all, had his ass in the net and he found a way to unhook himself and be free once again. Damn Matt, sorry buddy, 2 nice Hybrids. Pretty good night for me, wound up boating my first Hybrid of the year, nice one, 5lbs 11ozs. Boated 6 Eyes as well, 2 were short. The keepers were 18.5 - 24.5 inches with the biggest Eye weighing 5.8 lbs. All fish caught on lures and absolutely no surface action where we fished. YEA BUDDY! TIGHT LINEZ!!!
