I am done with my fall sampling for another year - YEA!  Finished up all my netting last week to end about 8 weeks of fall sampling for another year. Started with Lakewood in Salina, then moved to Ottawa State Fishing Lake, then to Kanopolis, and finally to Wilson. 

It was an interesting fall with cool September and early October temperatures which dropped the water temps down to about 50 degrees real quickly!! Then in mid-October it kind of turned warmer again and the water temp just stayed right at that 50 degree mark for 3 to 4 weeks.  We still had plenty of wind and rain to make riding the waves a bit more challenging this year but we got it done!!!!!
