[QUOTE="Rowdie, post: 181288, member: 272"] I've done it twice. Both times were full moons in August on OAHE. This was about 20 years ago when I still had access to the family pontoon. The first year was great! I went out at about 8:30 pm and farted around until it got real dark. I trolled the Moose flats in 45-50 fow, with deep running plugs. (They weren't cranks then). Big Bombers, and a short fat green one with a big bill, Manns?...They would run 25 fow. Had a cooler of beer some lanterns and the olé lady. I think we ended up with 5 fish and three were over 5 lbs. Lost a couple cause I didn't slow down. No one was catching big fish at that time in August. The day before, they had a couples tournament in Mobridge. My brother used to get in it with his daughter, so I gave him a hard time. I think we would have almost doubled the winning weight. Plus, my olé lady wanted to go at 2 am and I wanted to stay, well you know who won that. The moon wasn't even up all the way yet. :mad: The next year I was all hyped to do it again, we're gonna stay late all agreements made beforehand....... and the lower end unit goes out :mad:....I was out all night all right, pulling that damn pontoon along the shore all the way back to the ramp. It was light out when I got it back. [/QUOTE]
