| 15.25" Shower Blows 105 (Bone) |
Nothing on the NE side. The jumper was all over the Shower Blows on the SW side. I heard something get hit under the bridge while I was taking the fish off, but I didn't get any more bites.
While I was putting my gear in the boat there was pretty good visibility to start, but then the fog got thicker.
I decided to try Jenny's reeds hoping the fog would dissipate. I didn't get a bite and the fog wasn't going away, so I headed to Green Cabin in the fog 25 minutes wasted. On the way there I had a little issue with the fuel line. I got it figured out pretty quickly and was on my way.
There was no fog in Green Cabin Bay and it burned off the rest of the lake quickly after I arrived. I didn't get a hit in Green Cabin Bay. Eventually, I hightailed over to Chuck's Point. When I was fishing down the reed line into the slop a fish finally gave it's position away in the thick reeds by the shore on the point.

| 13.5" Grass Pig |
I caught my first bass of the trip there on a Grass Pig and quickly lost two more bites. I was working my way out of the reeds and on my last cast, I caught a good one.
 |
| 17.5" Grass Pig (GP) |
I threw a few more casts and was off to the Melon Patch. I caught two nice bass quickly.
 |
| 17" Bobby's Perfect |
The first fish, the 17-incher, didn't get the Bobby's perfect the first time. I threw back to the spot and it inhaled it. The second fish, a dark 16.25" chunk of a bass, came all the way out of the water missing the Bobby's Perfect. I threw back to the area about 10 times and had one hit from a pike. I then threw the lime Sprinker Frog and it hit it on about the 7th cast. That was my last bass of the morning, but I did miss a couple of bites.

| 17.25" Sprinker (Lime) |
I started in Channel Inn Bay. Stuff was getting smoked to my North way up in the junk when I arrived. Not much was going on. I caught one 15.5" bass. I pulled the plug at 7:45 and headed to the 17" Hole. I had a couple of pike hit the Sprinker right away. I moved to the west and got 15.25" bass. When I didn't get anything at the inside pad patch I headed back East getting a couple more pike in the 17" Hole. I then got a 17.25", first one above, from that point it was game on with the Sprinker Frog. I had two fish "dog me". I had the first one on for a few seconds and the second one never committed. Over that final half hour, I caught 12 bass and missed 3 or 4 more. The final fish of the night was the second 17.25". It buried me good in a rice stalk. No giants, but a fun night.
