Last of the July full moon. A bit of a breeze to start off, kept the mosquitoes away from us. Lots of moonlight, only used the headlamps to remove hooks. It was mostly crappie and rock bass, a few walleye but they were too thin to keep. Cranks baits and the Joker plastic caught all the fish. We had the boat in 10 fow but the baits were very, very shallow. A lot of fish were breaking the surface to snatch bugs off the water.

Another...my friend kept a dozen and I kept ten. Lost count of how many we caught from around 10pm until 4am. Lost count of the rock bass as well. LOL.

That's funny, thank you Arnie. Here is a picture of a released fish. Can anyone guess what species of fish this is?

That's just beautiful, thank you for posting your photo. Nothing like sunrise or sunset on the water.

Hey CP, nothing wrong with keeping fat crappie...
Protein is in the Ontario food guide right?

You said it Fozzy. Always nice to have a family dinner of fresh fish. Lucky we all like it cooked the same, on the BBQ.
