hit marburg on friday and didnt get a bite.  but with so much water to cover its gonna be hard to find em.  saturday I hit the susky up from shore and caught one small channel.  musta dropped it right on his head because as soon as I put the rod down the bait runner was singing.  I thought it was a log or junk floating down the river.  but it fought back.  It was hard to hold bottom even with 3oz of weight.

marburg was a bust again.  I packed it up and went to pinchot and had the same luck.  I picked up a shimano 4500 baitrunner spinner last night for 50 bux.  even comes with an extra spool.  my plans for this weekend changed.  I might be heading down to do some fishin on the susky on friday.  water should be up outta its banks and in the trees.  weathers supposed to be awesome as well friday.  anyone game for a morning trip?  gonna be around harrisburg area.
