The Flatlanders have returned from our 10th Annual trip on LOTW staying at the Bay Store Camp. Fishing was a little slower this year but all (16) members in attendance caught at least (1) fish. Our total # of Lunge was (51). Longest release went to Dave Jack with a 48 incher. Jeff Blanck had the most points for the trip totaling 107 points. We had (25) of the (51) fish measuring over 40 inches. Of these, (9) of the Esox were 45 inches or bigger. Friday was our best day with a total of (13) fish caught. Jerry Oestreich boated the biggest Pike at 40.5 inches. The most team points went to Dave Jack and Chris Riebe with a total of 168 points. The weather was sunny and warm but as usual over the full moon we had days of 15 - 20 MPH winds. We had only (1) day when it threatened to rain, but the sky's cleared by noon. I again want to thank Laura and Frank Walsh of the Bay Store for taking care of us and making our visit an enjoyable one.
