Doug's Birthday Trip


Fished with Captain Doug Sowa and Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the lower 40s and when we quit fishing it was in the upper 50s. The wind was out of the southwest 10 to 15 knots and the waves were 1 to 2 feet. Started fishing where we left off Tuesday and we caught some fish but the anchor would not hold. After a hour of fighting the anchor we decided to head back to marina and get the anchor off Daryl's boat, that did the trick. Went back to where we left off and were catching some nice fish but not very many so we made a move closer into shore. Fished in 7 feet of water for a half hour and only caught one fish so we made another move towards deeper water. That did not work out so we moved to where we fished 10 days ago. Very few fish there so we went back to our original spot, the spot that we should have never left. The catching was good but not what we expected. Kept 53 perch between 7 1/2 inches and 12 1/2 inches.
