Jumbo's Today

Fished with Joe and Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the middle 40's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 60's. The wind in the morning was out of the south around 17 knots with waves under 2 feet. After a couple of hours the wind laid down and so did the waves. The water temp is 56 Degrees. Started fishing past the S-Buoy by the Michigan / Ohio border. The catching was slow but we were catching nice fish. Once the waves laid down the catching slowed down. We made a few small moves in this area and we ended up where we started. Saw a storm coming our way so we pulled lines and headed for the barn. Kept 30 perch with 6 of them over 13 inches and three of those were 14 inches. Haven't caught perch this large in 12 years. The big perch made the 11 1/2 inch perch look small! We also caught 3 small mouth bass between 18 and 20 inches. The girth on the bass was amazing.
