Hybrid Meet & Greet follow up report!!!!!!!!

[Mikey topaz]

Well what happened?! What happened?????!!! I’ll tell you what happened... the NJFers’ put on a clinic and owned the lake for the day!! I know a few guys had motor trouble... and other stuff going on but this was one ya didn’t wanna miss.
Everyone launched at 7:30 and headed out in search mode and I stayed close and found em piled up and it was a one stop drop and had em going good. We deployed the flotilla and put the word out and the whole njf fleet laid the smacked down on the brids. Myself I had over 25 fish quite a few at 25” with two at 25-1/2” biggest. I know the other guys had some good ones too! Livers fished close to the bottom was the ticket. Thanks to all that came out.27 degree launch time ain’t for evreyone I know, and the last year one wasn’t to great but that’s why ya never know and gotta give it hell evrey year. Great job guys looking forward to the next one!

P.s. did anyone see that dang green canoe????????��

Great meet+greet :D thanks Squatch!

[Jigman13]

Were they hitting jigs?

Looks like a good time. Been a few years since I've been up there. Too much salt in the veins these days...

[AndyS]

Nice weather for a change, looks like a great time, I was at work of course.

All on bait Jeremy,

[NJSquatch]

This is certainly one for the record books!

Luke and I started jigging walleye. Got the call from Mikey that it was on. Pulled right into the middle of the flotilla and Luke immediately gets destroyed. The fish is owning him and everyone is yelling at him to stop screwing around and land the fish. After a 5 minute fight into the net went the biggest fish of the day at 26 1/8". It was drop and reel for 3 solid hours. Luke and I landed about 20 fish with 5 over 24" (skillful angler awards) and many just under at 23"+. There were many double headers. Great time busting balls on a picture perfect day.

Not sure which was the better highlight
- Scotty knocking his net overboard while hooked up and trying to grab the net before the tube filled with water.
- DuckOrBleed finding a stowaway on his boat and proceeding to chase it around the boat before it chewed on his wires.
-Mikey dealing with a fish that ate both of his baits. The fish had both hooks in its mouth.

Of course when I got home my wife was jealous and we headed back out on Sunday. We got a later start and had to make a couple of moves to find them. She got her first big one.

Also experienced and amazing sunset and moon rise

Great time as always Saturday. We built the life under the fleet and kept em going all day. Me and Fonz took a ride around the lake in the afternoon and found a spot holding the rest of Hopat's usual suspects. Perfect weather, perfect day!
