Smokin Joe Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Even though the fishing was tough I did manage to get one laker around 33" which turned out to be the only fish caught on our boat. Thanks for taking the time to organize the event Jeff and a big thank you to Doc for the new landing net I hope to get to use it a lot during up coming outings.
