Yep, that was fun. Correction - I was using a 6 inch Rainbow Trout Plastic. I did get slammed on an 8 inch Sardine fishtrap Saturday morning though so I think they'll eat anything they can grab. I'm convinced the bigger baits keep the ronkies off even though there didn't seem to be any around last night. Usually you can jig a small plastic along the bottom there and get tons of small hits but not last night.

Brian, did you more carefully measure Brian's fish? I measured mine flat against the board when I got home with my metal tape measure and it was a hair under 30". Brian's was at least an inch (if not an inch and a half) longer than mine.

I couldn't decide whether to keep that second legal fish. It seemed kind of dead so I started un-tying my stringer but when it sprung to life and flipped off my hand I figured it was meant to live.

Pictures coming soon - I NEED a weather proof digital camera!
