Title: Merrill Creek Mon May 28th Report !
Post by: Art Berkman on May 29, 2012, 07:36:29 AM
Met my Friend Steve in Riverdale at 4:15 am.

1st stop B & B in Stanhope for Herring.

Arrived at Merrill Creek Launch ramp at 5:50 am.

We were the 1st Boat that Launched   t^

Steve set us up on the 1st drift & I missed 5 Bites in a row   nosmly

The 6th Bite I landed a 24" Laker

Went back on the same drift and missed a few others.

Next drift Steve hooked up with a 16" Brown  t^

The 4th drift the bite died so we made a move & anchored up.

A few stockies were boated & it started getting hot.

Saw Fishon1982 (aka Robbie) trolling around.

At 12 noon we called it a Day.

Not a bad way to Spend a Monday morning !!

Good times always on the 16 Ft Monark  TT^
