Yeah, I'd expect you want some bigger ones to make the fillet sizes worth while.
Any certain depth they were holding at?
Since they got hooked, I am pretty sure they were holding at the "depths of despair".
Try the veal! Rod's here all week!!
Most of these were in sort of cove, used to be a huge hill but we used the dirt to build the dam so its kind of a cove, flat bottom about 8 to 10' deep flat bottom, probably close to an acre. pretty much close to the bottom. and some more in another cove, probably not that deep. on light to white colored sliders. I hadnt caught many WE before, just a few in the pond this past yr, and neither one of them had ever caught any, I tried to get them to lip them like a bass but they knew better then to do that.
All the really good ideas I've ever had came to me while I was milking a cow.
