Enough rain already !!

What in the world are people going to do. There is so much water around here that I have been looking for Noah and his Ark just anytime. Roads are closing, people are having to move out of there homes. Just was told that Golconda ,IL will be closing the flood gates. This means no way in or out of that town. There is a road south , but i believe the water is over that 1 too. So let's just hope and pray that this doesn't last too long.

I did get a little fishing in this weekend fished a 2 day club tourney on Cedar Lake. I didn't have much luck with the large mouth. But did have a good time. There was some good fish caught.The only Big Fish I caught was this 31.25 inch 16lb 6oz Striper.(weighed it on a X-Tool scale) I actually snagged the beast with a crankbait on 12lb flourocarbon line using a Powell Max series 703 cb glass rod. Fought it for what seemed like forever but probably only 4-5 minutes. Of course it got wrapped up in the trolling motor, then my outboard. I chased it around my jon boat about 3 times before we both got to tired to fight anymore. I finally got the net over its head and put it in the boat.
