Comments:

I put the go devil boat back in the water behind the house, and since I had it in the water I decided to fish for just a short time. I did not really expect to catch too much; I was just eliminating unproductive water. Amazingly I had a strike on my frog on my first cast, and one more about thirty casts later, but that was the extent of the action for the night. I never did boat a fish, nor did I see much activity.

Observations:

I went out through the cut and across the lake to where Somner’s Chute dumps into the lake. The area between the cut and Somner’s is a total mess with all the weeds. I really think the only boat that can navigate that route is a go devil style boat.
