We went out opening night, but only to scope the joint out. Season opens at midnight, and the lake closes at 1am.
On the next night, we did pretty good. In 4 hours, we were able to snag 31. We missed 2 each, for a total of 4 missed.
We only had to gig 2 of them. We grabbed the others. All of them were nice sized, with a few REAL niced sized ones. We went back a few nights later, and got 22 that time around. My friend cleaned all of them as he is on vacation from work, and we will fry them up soon.
This is the entire haul from the first full night. 31 total
This is one of the larger ones. I tried to get a clear picture of the ruler graduations. If you look close, you can see that he is 15in long
This is him beside my arm, I have pretty big hands, so you can tell how wide he was
