Took the day off to fish Icky with a friend who has put in alot of fishing hours there and it showed.We put in around 10'oclock the first time,yeah i flooded the engine to the point of new spark plugs.We reloaded,bought 2 more,replaced and put in for the second time.Now we were fishing. 
.For the first hour the water was still with not much wind.We caught a couple of shorts,some cats,and a lady so we went looking for some better bottom and we found it. With the welcomed light wind we set up a drift .Not long after, i heard my buddys drag singing BIG TROUT,grabbed the net and boated the 24.5 inch 4 lb bigon.We made several more drifts picking up more nice fish including a 22 and 18 inch trout several slot reds and my first black drum(17 incher).Now i know why my buddy likes icky so much.Going back Saturday for more.We were in 3 foot of water using what else but GULP.Sorry no pics just yet,left camera at work.Will post them soon.
