Fished down there 2 days over the weekend between south bend and north river.  We limited 1 day and caught 5 the other.  Definately not red hot bite for us but steady, seemed to be about 1 strike per hour.  We put in some hours to get those fish.  Wish the fishery lasted longer.  Sounds like the nets will be out next Monday.
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going!

upriver was deader than dead monday.  only saw 1 fish caught, i had one good bump that didn't stick.  looked like bumper boats up above the launch.

we need rain, a lot of the rollers i saw were turning black :bash:

when i was taking out, a big tree had drifted and gotten stuck across the boat ramp.  i got out just in time, i had to jacknife my trailer and hop my boat over it to get out of there.  with the tide running out i bet a lot of guys got stuck out there in the river.  sometimes it's nice having that gas guzzling jet on my boat :chuckle:
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

I have been kicking myself in the butt over wether or not to head down there.  I have this coming Friday off and was planning on it but I kinda doubt it now, especially since I have never fished it before.  I need some redemption after getting my butt kicked at Buoy 10 3 weekends in a row.

Fished down there the last weekend of august for 4 days.  The first 2 days sucked fishing in the channel but the last 2 days we killed em out towards washaway.  Sounds like fishing is still good and may be heading down there one day next weekend.
