| Lake Minnetonka - Club Tournament #6 - July 27, 2008 |
|
Well Rick Taft and I hit the water launching out of Gray's bay hoping to turn Saturday's performance around. I started on my favorite weedline in Wayzata Bay. It only took me about 5 casts to lose a 1/2oz TT Jig to a toothy predator. I then picked up my trusty bluegill Vixen topwater and started working over the top of the Milfoil. About 10 casts later a nice bass crushed it, I finally dragged it out of the milfoil and it was a nice 3lb plus bass.

We then headed to where I had caught a 3lb bass late in the day yesterday,...

"He was a man who loved nature from the time he was a barefoot kid," said Katherine Altaras, his wife of 63 years. Fishing, quail hunting or growing veggies ...

| Illinois beaches rank first for pollution |
|
CHICAGO (AP)—A new report says Illinois has the most coastal beaches in the country with water samples exceeding acceptable levels of bacteria. The report from the Natural Resources Defense Council found 23 percent of samples taken in 2007 from Illinois beaches along Lake Michigan exceeded levels considered safe for swimming. Nationally, 7 percent exceeded the limits. Tests measure levels of E. coli, which indicates the presence of pathogens that can lead to illnesses. The report partly blamed overwhelmed sewage systems, and cited seagull droppings at some Illinois beaches.
