Location: Racine, Wi | Awesome work boys! Those were good calls to get early in the morning. My wife asked "Who would be calling you at this time of the night??" I told her The Dude probably stuck a big fish. 2 hours later (2:30 am) I confirmed with him on my way to the lake. Great couple of days guys!!!! |

Location: Downers Grove, IL | Yep.... Shep I remember that fish. One of my first topraider fish in the 8. Thanks for letting me throw that bait!! I'm sure Kly was smiling the night I popped my first 50 with SJ and Mike. I cant say enough about how much effort Steve puts into guiding and making sure his clients are on fish. I've been on Mille Lacs with him 4 times now and even though we had some fishless weekends.... 4 footers in November snagging ciscos, I've learned a ton and shared some great memories. He is certainly on top of his game and has really figured out some of the many mysteries of Miss Mille Lacs. Thanks again Steve and Mike. That weekend ROCKED. Cant wait to get back on the pond.
