Lake Erie at 5 in the morning.  Buddy in from Seattle and headed out on another friends bass boat. Winds forecast are light. Should be fun but not sure with water temps.

Last fishing trip with some buddies I hid plastic bananas on their boats!  Haha defense!

Course once they found them they did a drive by fruiting!

Awesome day on the water. No walleyes and guys coming in limited out. Only caught one smallie myself , 15 sheepshead , friend from Seattle caught 10 Smallies , buddy who owns boat caught easy 30 bass We figured out we haven’t fished together in 20 years since the last time. Good times. Pic of inlet was beaver or long shot otter. Neat whatever it was. I am also great net boy

Couple more hogs. By PA chest measurements scale they all are Boone and Crocket fish.

Had 3 long line released fish. Guessing one was a nice eye and other 2. Lake Erie tuna. Again , what an awesome day to fish with some great friends of many years.

Ahh crap, up HERE you can drown year round if you aren't a strong swimmer.

Some fishing this morn.  Hit a spot where we doubled up with eyes.  Lost one and other was short by 1/4 inch.  Was a tough day but it has been 95 all week. Still a good day fishing with a buddy on the 4th.

Great boat indeed. 1/8 ounce jig heads and 2.5” black silver Gulp Minnie’s for friends. I used crayfish which ended up not so great on bass but were sheepshead candy.

Aw heck , had that sucker on asap.  I can’t swim a lick.  Wouldn’t stand a chance if I fell in  Hoping to find a more slimming model as holy crap it makes my look fat.  Arm floaties ain’t my thing. Water temp was over 73. Too.

Getting there. First day out with 3 rods going.  Had some action so we were doing something right.  Not on your level yet, learning curve with the new rigs.  Thanks again for all the help and advice.
