Way to go, Jayce, and watch out, those Whopper Ploppers will get an angler hooked as well as some bass. I had the good fortune of having a front row seat for these catches as I was his “rower” in our little johnboat. Although, as he is soon to be a teenager, perhaps it’s high time that he rows old Dad around the fishing hole one of these days. More on the outing coming up in an April “Prowl the Canal” wrap-up. Talk to you later. Troy
