And the rain was falling!!!! Got to the lake Wed morning around 8am, we head out and set 30 jug lines, and 30 limb lines. Around 12:30 we''re doin some crappie fishin close to where we have 5 jugs, and 1 just starts bouncing. Oh yeah, fish on!!!! Well, we quit crappie fishin, and start checkin jugs, missed that one, next jug, double hooker, check the rest, think we ended up with about 12-15 blues in 4 hours on Wed. Thursday morning we run lines, 15 fish, the biggest a 33lb flathead. Thursday night, another 15 fish, one an 18lb flathead, and a couple of nice blues in the 16-20lb range. Friday morning, we catch 8 fish, for a total weight of 168lbs, that's a 21lb average, this included a 33lb and 36lb flathead. Then the rain hits. It rained for 14hrs STRAIGHT on Friday. Sat we go out, we lose 5 limblines cause the lake came up about 1.5 feet overnight. Sat we only caught 2 fish, but one of these was a 24lb blue. One other day we had 2 blues that weighed 19lbs, and one almost 21. Needless to say we caught some fish. I'd say we cleaned 65-70 fish, with an average weight of somewhere around 13-14lbs, with a total of around 30 gallon bags FILLED with fish filets. Forgot the camera, so pics will follow soon.

Re: The cats were bitin!!!!

Actually the wife forgot to take the camera to work. I didn't get as many pics as I wanted, due to the wet weather.

Oh yeah, we also lost 5 limblines due to the lake rising about 1.5 feet Friday night, then it rose another foot or so on Sat.
