I got two 10lb + blues in the canal last night, first blues I have seen all year. No matter where I went on the canal, they turned my eels into cigar butts. Sore shoulders today.

NIB, there are plenty of nice bass if you can avoid the blues. I was kinda hoping I could make it the entire year without a blue. I consider a trip without a bass, even if I catch some blues, a skunking:fury:
