Comments

This morning we had heavy rains and lots of lightning move in. From what the locals were saying we had five to six inches of rain in a very short period. In fact, my boat looked like a floating bathtub it had so much water in it.
I scouted the sunken bogs out in front of Dun Rovin Resort this morning. I caught a few bluegills and saw lots of crappies on the camera. In the evening I fished for muskies at Walleye Point and Hells Half Acre, I never had any action. Dwayne and the kids fished the sunken bogs that I had located earlier. They caught about a dozen crappies with a couple of nice ones.

Observations

We had lots of rain the last twelve hours and I expect the water to go up a couple of inches.
