Fished on the hump last night in front of the shoot and landed 13 eyes with my limit home. Lost another 3-4 to current and willows. Corky nailed 2 and got them home easily as part of his 5 total. We each got some suckers too and I got one long carp. Corky got a 6 lb female that was spewing. I had a rock hard small female. Guys were crossing to the island fairly easily. By today it'll be an easy cross but the second shoot may be tricky. By tonight or tomorrow the hole will be open. I won't be fishing until probably Monday morning.
Nice fish yesterday fisherboy! That's a biggie. What was the weight on it? Was it hard or spewing eggs?

Birdman ended up with 3 today, but that was fishing all day, lots of guys on the island all the way past the hole. Don't know how fisherboy ended up. 3 green trucks at lawyers by the bridge and 4 trucks at Schroeders.
A day to live in stupidy. My own fault. Tried chute for 20 minutes. Waste. Went to hump. Getting into water guy there more or less told me to give him & his buddy space. He was out & out snagging. No doubt. You know I dislike that kind of thing. In any case that killed that hole for fishing with floaters so I decided to try lead.
Kept up with guy more or less except for 1 thing. He & his buddy left with 8 hogs. I threw my 5 back, 2 of which were close to fish ohio. I could have kept 4 without a doubt if I wasn't afraid of getting my arm wet.
Birdman & I continue fishing 7 watching all the fish come off the island. Finally went down there. Guy leaving said the fishg slowed way down from earlier. In any case Birdman first cast got him a we which was tossed back. My first cast got a we which spit the lure when I could not decide whether he or I should net it. Plain stupid on my part. 2nd cast got a we which he netted. Cute little thing (13.5") which would have made a nice addition to a turtle pond. Threw 1 or 2 back, lost line & action was over. Went home them for energy, Returned 3 hrs later, fish a little with Birdman who finally pooped out, snaged 2 more & finally caught 1 I kept. Left at 6 moaning about my choice of location & whatnot. 10 fish tossed, 1 kept. But no one to ask to see my license.
4/12
Thought nothing could be as bad as prior day. Goning to fish the hole. Don't know if I could have made it across the chute or not & did not feel like trying. Talked to 2 guys 2/3 of way & they invited me to try where they were going to fish. Not a hell of a lot to report except had my 4 fish by 7:50. See Gary's web. All nice males. Also 2 suckers. easy to catch fish if they're biting. Wasted about 40 minutes more but only had 1 more on. Lost when passing the pole. No other limits when I left but everyone had 1 or 2 fish. No idea what was happening in the 'hole'
Sunday 4:30pm, Just came back from a walk in Side Cut, 3 of our favorite green trucks parked at lawyers office by bridge. With the lack of people anyone fishing the island will be fair game for these jerkoffs, holidays have no meaning when you drive a green truck and don't have a life,we better not be paying those jerks holiday pay for sitting on their asses!! Only 1 week until turkey season then they will have a whole new group of guys to harass...
