BIL and son had a GREAT smallie trip!

[finelyshedded]

They went up to Lake Erie a couple weekends ago and tore up the smallies. Between the two they caught around 120 of them with 100 being at least 3 lbs and up. They shared some pics with me of the nicer ones but every fish was released including a 28" warreye! Told him he could have brought that one back home though! I'll post up the pics of the bigger ones later when I'm in better cell service. The biggest topped out at 6 pounds and 20 or more were at least 5 pounds. They actually got tired of taking pictures...lmao

Sounds like a blast I'm taking the wife and daughter camping in Tennessee memorial day weekend and plan on trying to get some time on the water down there on Cherokee lake.

Ashtabula Lake shore Marina.... Lots of places too fish inside the break walls with slips and the Ashtabula river there as well in case the lake is too rough....

Where you at Gern???
