Weather was overcast and raining, sometimes substantially, rain gear was the uniform of the day. The fishing was ok but the company was great. I had the opportunity to take my old buddy Bob and my new buddy Harry, from Mississippi, out fishing for Tigers and smallies today. Harry had never heard of a Tiger much less seen one and he caught a 46 inch beauty using a blue backed, large wigglewart. We were trolling in 18 feet of water between Driftwood Point and Campers Island and Harry thought he'd snagged the bottom. When the pole doubled up we cleared the decks and let Harry fight the fish. Bob held the fish for Harry since he was new to Tiger fishing.
