That's a good day!!
I went up to Lake Musconetcong to try out my 9.9 & also to visit my daughter & 2 grand daughters.

There was a small club tourney going on, but I didn't see anyone catching. Â*I lucked out with 2 about 1 1/2 lbs., but that was it. Â*Caught em in the lily pads at the far eastern end on a rat. Â* Love those topwaters when they work!!!!

Super windy with water temp @ 63. Â*I know because I had the indoor/outdoor thermometer taped to my TM. Â*

BTW... the lake has the usual problem of being overgrown with weeds, although the shorelines are pretty clear to about 10-15 feet out. Looks to be just about ready for spawning.

I'm extremely cheap so I bought a thermometer from the pet store for less then 2 bucks.
