Richard "Dick" caught a 29.5" last fall trip during Conclave on a hopper.  World traveler but best fish have come from White.

Just joking with yout wording.  Some people just have the big fish mojo.  Really cool I'm sure to share your boat and experience angling moments like that with a good fishing friend.

He's a great guy, enjoy spending time over here on our trips.

I was a hot commodity at the supper table last night, all the non meat chunkers were wanting a place on my boat. Garey, my bud who rode over with me fishes a #4, rigged him my #6 streamer rig with 24' SA Streamer Express, he lasted less than 30 minutes today. I told him not to consider Musky .   :o

So what you're saying is I need to plan my next trip with the club when you'll be there too!? Can't wait to hear all the stories. Is Dick the only one to break the 20" mark (that sounds wrong)?

YES, you need to plan on going, great trip, great bunch of guys to hang out with, fish with, get to know on a deeper level than at the meetings.

Fishing was great, catching sucked, didn't see much catching going on with the hardware fishers either, we caught fish but it was slow, weather was terrible, had a storm that the left overs made it to Tennessee, stalled out over us, wind blew gale force non stop for 2 days. 6" rain one night, then normal rain for 36 more hours.

Buffalo was pouring 30,000 CFS mud into the White
