Reality check-

Pete's "time now to give her a rest" from last week somehow quickly changed to "let's go back ASAP". The effort was similar to last week's trip- 2 boats, 4 guys slinging big stuff non-stop, but the results were more earthly. Handful of fish, nothing big, no grill or burgers or dogs in the boat, got blown around by winds that weren't forecasted, called it a day by 3 to beat the traffic, didn't beat the traffic anyway.

But did get a chance to rest up for an early Saturday morning and all day trip on Lake Michigan for the other orange meat, which went better!

That's exactly what happened to us. So much for the 5-10mph winds they were calling for on Thursday evening!

Went out Saturday and got beat up by the wind, had to hide in some of the more shallow bays near Fairhaven, had some follows but nothing in the net. Wondering what the water temps might look like this weekend.
