Mickey and I started fishing at 7:45 this morning and by  8:26 we had 27 fish. The bite was hot and heavy right off the bat with us catching one almost every cast. A gar snipped off my DT-10 after I had caught a couple of fish. The bait floated up but it was right in the bitespot and I couldn’t go and get it without messing things up so I pulled out the rod with a DT-6 on it. The DT-6 caught a few but I was falling behind holding up my end of the string. Finally I got the 10 back and started catching again. Some fish were caught on a worm but that was later in the day. Some of our spots from Sunday afternoon were empty but we found some new ones that were hot. For instance we caught 17 in one spot that we only caught a couple in Sunday. The size was good today but only one 5-0. Others were 3-0, 3-2, 3-8(2), 3-12(4), 3-14(2), and 4-0(2). We only had 7 small ones that would have averaged 3/4 pound each. The 66 others would have averaged 2 1/2 pounds each.  We caught 85 bass in all that would have weighed 213 pounds. Best 5 would have weighed 20 3/4. No pictures today because the action was too fast. It was Mickey’s turn today to break a rod. It broke after he lifted a fish into the boat just as I did Sunday. I had a new one that replaced the one I broke last Sunday afternoon. It did fine and was better than the one it replaced. Today was a good day to break it in.  Another new item made its debut today. It was a pair of  6 1/2 inch aluminum pliers in a scabbard that Hal sent me. It was a good day to have them and needless to say they got used a lot. We fished until late but most of the catching was before noon. Another great day of fishing but I will have to say I’m pretty worn out and ready to put my head on a pillow.
