Fished with Captain Daryl and Mark. Temperature this morning was in the lower 50's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 60's. Pretty cool for this time of year. The wind was out of the northwest less than 10 knots with waves less than a foot. The water temp is 68 Degrees. With the big northeast blow last weekend and the cool temps at night, the algae is starting to dissipate and the lake looked pretty good today. Started fishing about 4 miles east of the E-Buoy and Mark caught the first and only fish right out of the gate. Made a move another 1/2 mile to the east and set up and we were on some fish. We stayed put and enjoyed the day catching some perch. The bite slowed down a little and we decided to call it a day with a nice box of fish. We pulled lines and were heading back to port when we were pulled over by the Ohio DNR. They asked if we had an Ohio fishing license and we said yes. They then asked how many perch we had and Daryl said less than 90. One of the officers boarded the boat and checked our licenses and started counting the perch. When he was getting towards the bottom of the cooler we were starting to get a little worried that we were over the limit. He put the last fish in his bucket, looked at his hand held counter, and said we had 82 perch. Everyone was happy so we each went our own way.
