8. The bass fishing was off this week but I am not sure why. The Walleye fishing is continuing to build and I expect we should start guiding for them the week after Thanksgiving.
9. Please write the Fish and Boat Commission and express your concerns to them. We can provide you with email addresses if you need them.
10. Linda and I traveled to Mt. Pocono on Tuesday and shot a television show with Alex and JoAnne Zidock. They were great host and we enjoyed the experience tremendously. The show aired Thursday, Friday and Saturday and should air tomorrow as well. In a couple weeks it should be on the Out In The Open web site for a week. We will try to let you know when you can view it on the web site.
11. I don’t know how long the catfish fishing will last but it was another great week for catching quality Flatheads.
HAVE A GREAT WEEK AND LUV THE TUG………REB
