WHITE PERCH TO SELL, MOSTLY 3 1/4" MESH GILLNET
IT WAS A LONG DAY SATURDAY, WINDY AS HEAK...... WE WERE THE ONLY ONES OUT - GO FIGURE
IT WASN'T A SLAM LOAD BY ANY MEANS.......FOUND OUT WE HAD A FEW LINES THAT APPARENTLY WENT DRY ROOT OVER THE WINTER - THE THING IS THEY ARE WASHED OFF WITH FRESH WATER AND PUT UP UNDER ROOF AFTER THE SEASON........IT WAS REALLY STRANGE.....ANYWAY WE BUSTED TWO BOUY LINES AND ONE BRIDLE AT THE END OF ONE OF THE NETS......WE TOOK 1000 YARDS WITH US IN LONG SHOTS AND SHORT SHOTS AS WELL.........FIRST TRIP OF THE YEAR YOU KNOW - THAT'S WHEN YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GONNA GO WRONG!!!!
LITTLE OVER 6 BOXES OF FISH....BARELY COVERED THE FUEL AND COFFEE!!!! THAT'S THE GAME THOUGH IT WILL GET BETTER WITH THIS COLD CANADIAN AIR BLAST WE GOT COMING I HOPE!!
