Several anglers struggling

Photographer Gettys Brannon and I are riding the waves of Lake Oahe, checking on anglers who don’t have a marshal today. Tommy Biffle has two bass. Roy Hawk has four. Jared Lintner has three. And Kyle Monti has one. None has much weight.

I’m glad our driver, Brad Taylor, has 21-foot Nitro ZV walleye boat, or we’d be soaking wet by now. The wind is whipping. We’ve been in the Okobogi and Plum creek arms of the lake.
