Rotary classic

[cpmaple]

Just wondering who else is fishing the rotary? Cpmaple will be out with a crew of 4, my daughter, son in law and their good friend. We will be on the south end Westport south as of now. I will post each evening how we do, nothing more its gonna be a great time with my daughter an son in law aboard since this will be the first for us fishing the rotary together team name is Cpmaple Sugaring.

hey Chad. team “Reelax” will be camping in Charlotte from Thursday nite (gear prep session) to Sunday to focus on water time, not trailer time:)

I’ve got previous DYP partners Joe and Jon on board. These are 2 of the most hardcore, long trolling fishing partners who I have ever met. They can do a 12hr troll if needed on a slow bite, and want more;)
It takes a special fisherman with that level of passion and determination but they both have it:)

We will be fishing the whole lake from Essex south. I will stay in touch to let ya know what we may be doing early on Friday to the north of you. I would be willing to bet we will be down your way by late day 1 or day 2 if my hunch is correct….

Really looking forward to this year, after a DYP win, we are trying to get a streak going and this would be the next hurdle to knock down.

Good luck to all rotary fishermen.!

Boo yaaa! It’s on… can’t wait:)


Fish on!

Put the big boat in the barn yesterday ahead of the rain today to start preparing for the rotary. Stripping 10ft of line each pole ,retying leaders, cheaters. Go over gear check an double check lol.

Weather looks better for 3 consecutive days than I have seen for a derby in a LONG time. This should be a blast!!!
