Got to share a fun day in the boat yesterday with Eric and Tom. We bopped around the river looking for bass and found a couple! Fish are transitioning to summer patterns and seem scattered. Thanks for the fun day fellas!

Friday fun with this group. 8 different species of fish and a good haul for a fish fry. Had to work for the crappies but the gill bite was great! Awesome day spent in the boat with great people.
