The best thing about potholes is you can catch all of those.  FYI you left perch and catfish off of your list.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.

Caught a 10 1/2 pound walleye the first time trying for them.   :chuckle:  Caught a huge crappie once on a guided trip, the only fish though with a massive storm front coming in.   :(

I think it might depend on time of year, but I haven't fished it much.
