    Re: Paris Lakes East and West, Edgar Co (Rudeman)

    Fished from 8:30am to 12:30PM on the West lake. on 4/18
    Blue bird sky. Wind shifted from NNE to N to NNW and back again...
    Water Temps ranged from 59 to 61.

    Cought 3 males pitching a Venom tube into less than 2 feet of water on the North bank. Could feel the tubes and Sweet Beavers being bumped by fish (protecting the bed?) Poorly hooked a fat lady and she got off at the boat. Maybe 5lbs?
    Other Notes: A club tournament was going on also that day. 2 Boats were on the West Lake and 8 or 9 on the East. Didn't see any of them weigh in... I know some of the guys and id reckon somebody had 12 to 15lbs...

    The West Lake ramp is horrible... Writing a letter to the editor and my boat will not be launched there again till its fixed.
