Saturday looks like a cookie cutter of yesterday with maybe less wind and the doom & gloom guys can't even spoil this one - Sunny. Highs in the upper 60s. Northwest winds 10 to 15 mph. Add to that the ocean water temps are moving up and things are looking pretty sweet.
We had a couple of reports that poppers were working on the Bass and with rising water temps the artificials should begin producing on a regular basis. Friday weigh-ins:
Dave Arnold - Bass - 40" 23.2 lbs on bunker
Dave Arnold - Bass - 39" 19.1 lbs on bunker
Andy Schmidt - Bass - 37" 17.2 lbs on bunker
Andy Schmidt - Bass - 34" 12.7 lbs on bunker
Eric Polovina - Bass - 37" 14.2 lbs on a Grumpy Clam
Brian Sabo - Bass - 30" 8.5 lbs on bunker
Mike Bartley - Weakfish - 35" 14.7 lbs on a shad
Alan Ferrier - Bass 33" 12.8 lbs on bunker
Phil LaGrossa - Bass 43.5" 34.6 lbs on bunker
Rick StillCasting - Bass 36.5" 19.5 lbs on a Popper
We added the Ladies Only Bass Tournament yesterday! Get signed up Ladies so I don't have to listen to Mike muttering! We are getting lots of entries into the Pool Tournament and the Put Up or Shut Up Tournament too! Its not too late to enter.
We Are OPEN Till MIDNIGHT Tonite! (As long as Mike can stay awake!) You know Mike, some of us drank from the fountain of knowledge, He only gargled!
Grumpy hisself
At least I didn't in trouble for taking a shower in it and doing something worst. We all know about OLD men and warm water!!!!!!!!!!!!Mike
Got some NEW clothes in Ladies. Maybe I'll start selling shoes.
