6. We thought we were getting Dave’s new boat on Saturday but it was not 100% so we are hopeful we will have it this week. We have put extra thought into this design to specifically aide us in our Catfish Trips.
7. Please write the Fish and Boat Commission and express your concerns to them. We can provide you with email addresses if you need them.
8. The last couple bass trips we are picking up a few walleye and the majority of them have been over 15”.
9. We currently have a good bite going for white perch for those of you who are interested in some good eating fish.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND LUV THE TUG………REB
