Yesterday started with a ton of excitement and adrenaline. Craig Deck and I took the ranger down to launch at the Raisin River in Monroe Michigan for a little hot pond action. The ride down seemed to go really quick b/c we talked to a guy who was in their catching them. Once we got there we launched the boat and even remembered to put the plug in. After some slight hesitation, the HPDI fired right up. We idled down the Raisin river to the mouth of lake Erie, only to find ice blocking our exit. We loaded the boat back on the trailer and headed to bolles harbor to launch instead. Our adreneline was starting to wear off but never the less, we were still really excited. Once we got in there, the water temp was 56 at the front and around 58 in the back. My first fish came right in the heart of a down tree. It was so awesome setting the hook and have something tugging back. At the end of the day, we ended up catching (and releasing) 44 fish and to top it all off, the last fish of the day was caught on a swimbait!
Please post any questions in the comments section and I will answer them ASAP.

Is a swimbait when you jump into the water for a dip and a fish gets ahold of your toe?
