In the case of a catch and release tournament, the tournament organizer has to make special arrangements with FWP for such a tournament and I believe that the tournament is heavily watched!

Was there from 2:15 till about 4:00 caught several perch with only a handful of keepers and 2 pumpkin seeds. Trick was being mobile and I was only at a hole for no more than 10 minutes.
The tugs the drug

If somebody gets into a consistent crappie bite at all, let everyone know. It's been a struggle out there for crappie this year

Heard there were a bunch of people on the slough today. I wouldn've been out there if I wasn't in Spokane. How did everyone do?

A few medium perch. Real slow and they were suspended. Fished 9' and they came in at 5'. Very few marks yesterday so n the sonar.
When there is ice on the lakes, I never make employee of the month!

This is exactly what I did today as well.  I was hoping for some crappie.
