In a perfect world I would go to LSC, but I rarely get consecutive days off, and it's a bit far. Work starts at 4 AM, I need a decent night's sleep or I'm liable to run some poor sap off the road with my truck.

I was leaning toward Budd as well. I haven't been out there yet this year.

If I go to Budd, should I still be concerned about the VHS (?) virus here? I don't want to be transferring anything to another lake. I read that if fishing in waters with VHS that you should clean your boat with bleach afterward. I don't know if this is true, but it couldn't hurt.

Will do. If nothing else, it can't hurt.

Yeah, I went on Tues, haven't gotten around to posting a trip report just yet. Had 1 mid 30's follow and it had zero interest in my figure 8. I'm a converted bass guy, so I can never resist bringing my bass gear, and the two of us put a dozen bass in the boat in the hour we targeted them.
