Canceled due to weather Sunday looks great, but with Mother's Day, I know hardly anyone would be able to fish.
Man, this sucks because we just got onto some quality fish, yesterday. Might as well let you all know there are some big perch hanging out in the narrows. A buddy of mine found them yesterday morning and pointed me in the right direction. Bruce and I headed out after work last night. Found them in 33 to 38 FOW in really small, tight schools. We caught 16 last night, but only one was a throw-back, with most of them being over 10 inches! Bruce caught the pig of the night. She was over 12 inches, (see pic,) and still full of spawn! He released that one since we had plenty of spawned out fish to eat.
