Had to get out and test a recently put-back-together elbow the other day. Sunday did not give us ideal fishing conditions here, but we made the most of them. Hit up a lake we like to visit in our area because of its diversity. You never know what you�re going to catch. There were seven of us, four were kids. Not even a sniff the first hour we were out there. Kept at it I was rewarded with a big drum. On ML tackle, it was a pretty incredible fight.

Soon after, my buddy�s wife hooked into a very nice walleye. We thought it was on. Nope. Another hour passes and, besides a small yellow bullhead on a nightcrawler sitting on the bottom hoping for something else, not a bite or a nibble. The kids were getting restless so we started to load up the car. I promised my son if he actively fished for the next 15 minutes we�d hunt for some morels. Five minutes from officially calling it quits, all hell breaks loose. He�s hooked into something. His personal best largemouth bass.

And we found quite a few morels too.
