Launched boat at 7 pm and began heading up the river when we seen a King jump, followed by another ... so for kicks decided to throw a lines down. Rod in the downrigger holder was the 15# rigger rod with a Green easter egg on it. Ran it back 30 feet dropped it down 5 at the trolling permited sign, figured might as well go a lil slower and troll to the light house before i got back to the drivers seat the rod poped 18.5lber decided to put boat in neutral and let my buddy fight it like a bass. He had a blast Seen other kings jumping while fighting this one, so reset with 2 riggers and 2 dipseys and made 2 quick loops and picked up and ran south to 90ish ... set up on a north troll caught fish Everything worked 100 copper 150 copper braid an wire dipseys SWR and light Rigger 4 color and 6 color all moonshines beside the easter egg biggest was 25# along with a 23.5# 19# the 18.5# 17# and 16# were the fish i weighed 25lber quit at 5:15 am 14 for 23? just couldn't get the last one

Wow! That's a nice catch ! 4 fish in one trip is the best I have done this year. Most trips there has only been 2 of us on my boat. I only got skunked once this year but have been only getting 1 or 2 fish per outing. I work with 1/2 dozen or so guys that fish, and their doing about the same as me. Sure a lot different than the near limit catches we were getting last year.

I gotta ask, were a couple of those little guys dragged around for awhile? Or did you get them on the right rods to let you know you caught a "midget" as you call them.
