Fish 1 - Fisherman zero! Till we meet again my worthy opponent......till we meet again! 
Oh.....if anyone finds a 3 oz. Perch pattern pencil popper attached to a nice striper.....keep the plug.....I just want the fish back!  |
You remember me asking if you had caught anything on a perch pattern last week? Do you? I was fishing with the two oz. pencil, and nothing, but I had grteat expectations for it when fish were around. Going tonight myself.
