Foozer 194 Report post Posted April 28, 2015 We got to the Current at about 10:20.Pail and a half full in 30 minutes. The run was getting much better as we were about to leave but we didn't need any more than we already had.Back home shortly after 11:00.Now we can have a good feed and I can get back to more important things......Steel!
