Ill have to take you up on the offer one day. Been hard to find time lately, Workin too much. I've notice that the amount of rain and the timing makes alot of difference on where and when sauger will show their faces. I hope we get a decent amount of rainfall (not all at once) before the cold really sets in. This may get the sauger into those easy to reach places. P.S. Wish I had your job (guiding). That would be livin the life.
