Got out to prefish a tourny for next saturday. Got up about 5:00 dad got up about 6:00 we left about 7:00. Got to the lake about 8:45. Realized that I took the prop off the skiff's trolling motor and put it on the buster boat to sell soon. Loaded up and drove to the nearest walmart. they only have minn kota props. I had to go to a boat dealership...expensive! get back to the lake at 10:30ish. meet a friend of mine who has been at the lake since 7:00 this morning. Get on the lake and start fishing. My dad catches one about 15 inches. At two we decide to move to another lake to prefish (you can choose which lake to fish in this tournmaent). Drive over there and start fishing. My dad catches a two and half pounder real quick. About twenty minutes later I throw my spinnerbait up against some rocks and BAM! I catch my biggest fish of the year. It would have gone 5 and a half easy and my have even been six. I didn't have a camera with me so I don't have a picture. ( i will draw one later and post it LOL). About twenty minutes later I catch a fish that barely measured. For fighting the wind it sure was worth it to see a nice fish in the boat. My biggest before this was about 2 to 3 pounds or so.
