What kind of boat?

We just got home from the Diamond late last night..broke the 20" mark finally with a 21" fatty. Pictures to come after I down load them. Also one of the cabins caught on fire Saturday night and caused a lot of excitement.

Are you a bait fisherman?

I'd love to hear some tips for this lake. I'm heading up there tomorrow morning. How'd you catch that 21"er? I too will be joining that fishing derby on Saturday. Hope to see you up there fishingexpert. We'll be in a 19' bayliner with downriggers and a bow anchor pully (It's probably the only bayliner outfitted for fishing I've ever seen). We have a big group site.. Look for a large grey truck with a canopy. That'll be us. Come on by and we'll toss you a beer.

I can't seem to figure out how to add a picture in my reply so I will start a post for you.

We used chartruse power bait with glitter and Mike's garlic scent. This color seems to out fish any other...2lb test leader.....cheese hole is hot right now.

In every single lake that I fished last year (about 10 or so), Chartreuse was THE color...period. It even worked at my first lake outing @ Detroit last weekend.

Wow. 2 lb. leader and a 21" beast. Nicely done!
