Nighttime Walleye and Hybrid Action Picking Up

Laurie Murphy:

The Knee Deep Club held their Panfish contest this past weekend with 25 entries. First place went to Tommy Crouch,  Bob Smith took 2nd place and a Dan Reiss took 3rd place with 1lb 4 oz Crappie. Their next contest will be held on Sunday June 26th,  The Stew Lant Challenge for Large & Smallmouth Bass. Cash prizes will be awarded for the  3 heaviest fish and rod and reel combos with go to the top 6 finishers. We also weighed in a 9 lb 10 oz walleye caught by Lou Marcucci and a 6 lb 12 oz hybrid striped bass caught by Dave Coppolla. Nighttime action with top water lures is starting to pick up also and we are seeing our share of nice crappie and yellow perch. The Knee Deep Club is also holding a junior fishing derby this Saturday June 4th at the Mount Arlington Memorial Pond for any youngsters that would like to attend. June 4th is also a free fishing day, where no freshwater fishing license is required. Have a great week !
