Beautiful day for fishing but the wind was mean! I didn't even need my trolling motor to make it to the south end, I just started out on the sunny side and let the wind blow me down there, lol. A few times I tied off on a tree in the middle and fished a while.

First good day on Briery this year. Fished on flats and basically anything we threw caught fish. Caught at least 50 - 60 fish combined with my buddie, probably more, honestly lost count because at one time we were on a school taking top waters and the action was so fast and furious. Largest fish landed was in the 4 - 5 pound range, but we did hook several bigger fish and my buddy lost one that looked like around 10 - 11 pounds right next to the boat, line snapped. Needless to say he was heart broken.

The ole wacky rigged finesse technique pulled them off spawning beds. I just had to allow for the wind get the unweighted worm in the beds.

Caught several in the 5-6 pound class and the rest were 1 1/2 to 3 pounds mostly males. The larger ones had worn/bloody tails.
