Went down to Oscoda to try to get some perch for dinner. Normally I dont get the jumbos that some of the locals do, but normally enough for a supper for 2. The local shop keep that sold me the wax worms said it wasnt even worth going that the locals were searching for fish elsewhere till the lake cleared up. I should have listened, I was there a little over a hr and got 2 dinks. Fished out by the launch in 13FOW. Had some fish on the Vex but things were really slow. The little lake that I Fish for Gills produced nothing but dinks also. Oh well, still a nice day out of the house.

I haven't talked to one of the neighbors kids in over a week now. I was thinking of getting up there in 2 weeks. Any word on what is happening out on Tawas Bay?
