Well done, John, as that crystal clear lake can be a challenge, especially on a sunny, summer-like afternoon. Great to hear a report from that unique fishing hole. More fishing stats and notes in the works. Stay tuned and talk to you later. Troy

  1. Troy, what a small world. I had no idea my neighbor across the street was one of your regular fishing buddies. I’m sure he’ll be sending you a picture he took during his yard sale. Hope to see you and Julie in July. K.O.

    1. Indeed, a small world and I did receive a picture of what looked to be a tug of war over a dipnet. Hope to get down to the get together as we have not seen you or many of those friends for a long time.

    I agree; it is a small world! There may be other neighbors of ours that are avid followers of Troy Jackson Outdoors!!!!

    1. I suspect that area accounts for a large percentage of my followers. Dad, Mom, Brent, you guys…that’s probably half of the list right there.
