Marilyn Jean II
The nice weather brought out some big crowds on both the 7 and 12 trips
But the Fluking has been great While the am trip was a bit slow the last drift of the am was the best.In total the am Produced 11 keepers to 5.5 lbs
The fishing got really good in the afternoon with 23 keepers and lots of short action. Steve had a mule at 9.5 lbs
We managed to stay in the deeper more productive areas most of the day and it was worth it.
