So until my entry gets through to Lou will not be posting for tourney yet.
Spend all weekend at Hopatcong freezing my ass of.
Was worth it every second of it. Fishing was spectacular just wish it was like that every year. Through the weekend landed over 8 bass (all largemouth) with biggest being 19" but most were in 16-17" range. All but 2 are swimming. Over 10 pickerels landed with biggest being 23" but most in 18" range. All are being pickeled as I type this. Not that much perch landed I think only 5 or 6 of them ended up on ice with biggest being 12". He choked on a large shiner poor bastard. Over 150 sunnies were landed with biggest pushing 8". 50 were kept to be salted and dryied for those beer days. Only 1 crappie was found and that's only thing I was upset about. And for a surprise catch ended up with a catfish as well on a jig rod.
Overall good times on lake as always.
