absolutely beautiful day on the 12th! sunny and warm, caught a bunch of bluegills. biggest one was probably 2lbs? just using simple bait on my old pole. the sunset was killer too, what a day!

today was cloudy & kinda windy at portage. had a tough time with the wind but managed to hook a decent 4lb bass on a crankbait. it was a struggle but worth it in the end. hope it gets sunnier soon!
