The day started out pretty cold but with light winds and transitioned into a total blowout with winds pretty steady at 30, Today was different because it is a 5th Thursday special. And this format was ONE fish. Your biggest.
So, one would think with the water temps at about 60-63 the "ladies" would be headed to the bank. That really didn't happen for most of us. Even catching a suitor (male bass) was difficult for most today.
One bass over 10" is all you need. Slots included. Paying 4 places on each category.

So, we didn't write down any fish except to step up in weight. With the wind we still had 8 members zero.
