Nancy Stapp & Anthony Crawford knocked em’ dead again this week, with Nancy hooking the biggest on their stringer, a gorgeous 6 lb. trout along with nine other trout (2 limits total)…..Their favorite trolling lure is a Rapala.  Little Miles Hansard from Brownsville had a very successful fishing trip with his Dad, it was Miles 1st Fishing Trip and together they hooked 8 trout!
