I remember seeing a ole monster trout in there that I never could get to bite,that was the year that the trout stayed in there from early Nov till mid March,could stop and in 10 to 12 casts have my limit of 10 every day,with all the boat traffic now and fishing reports in the papers I doubt you will ever see that happen again

Figured it's about time to bump this one back to the top of the forum for another trip down memory lane... yep, I'm a trouble maker! :-D :lol:

Anybody not like the thread, please don't say anything... just fill Bman's inbox with PMs to give him something to read while he targets gator trout of the mountain variety. :wink: :smt045
