It’s that “S” word again

I can’t blame it on the fish finder,  but another empty run.  About 4 hours of hanging both crawlers and minnows in front of what appeared to be schools of (small) Perch on the Fish Finder,  brought a couple of nibbles and one 4 inch White Bass.  The Bass half swallowed a minnow that was at least 3/4 his size,  and didn’t even get hooked,  he just couldn’t eject the minnow fast enough to get off.

Other fishing news:  The Salmon are running in the AuGres River.  Their still very healthy and a few nice ones have been taken.  It’s not like the runs on the West side,  but,  it’s not nearly as crowded or crazy,  and the meat should be much better considering the early season health of these fish.

I’m looking at a Standard Horizon CP-180 color GPS/Mapping unit to replace the ailing Lowrance Global Map 2000.   That will likely be the one, unless I can get ahold of my neighbors unused Raymarine (green screen) unit, that includes C-Maps of the Great Lakes.   The Standard Horizon unit,  also has a powerful fish finder option,  that is tempting.
