In the spring of 2005 during a night shocking survey, we collected 119 bass per hour averaging over 2.5 pounds each. That is a very good number, and the body condition of each was excellent.

Explain this game to me. Last night we went 2-for-24 from the 3 and (Friday) we made 11 threes. We make a few of those (against Franklin) and we have a chance to win the game.

The carnival is a good money raiser, but more importantly it's a good night of family fun. It's pretty easy to measure the bottom line. But when families come out and have such a good time together, you just can't measure that.

The bluegill population is very good. We haven't collected any 'trophy' bluegill, but there are many in the 61/2- to 8-inch range. The best time to fish for them is in May during the spawn.

That means we had 14 bass over 18 inches every hour.

We still don't know why. We assume it has something to do with heat fluctuations.
