Went to Dow`s and was surprised to see the smallie was 4 lbs 4 oz.(CPR) Was the best two days fishing any where I can remember.

BAIT/LURES USED ------- Herring

NOTES --------------------- First time out on the lake as a new member of KDC. We started catching fish around 7am. The Hybrids were small. We caught three Hybrids under 8 inches, one 15+ inches and a 10 inch cat. We landed a nice fat one. We catch and release and didn't take the time to weigh the fish. I estimate the fat Hybrid caught off of Cow Tongue Point about to be just over 15 inches.
