That is crazy late! I almost never fish them later in the year. Looks like I've been missing out...
Best I've done was 49 casts, 49 fish landed, no misses and on the same chironomid. Cast 50 I hooked up...and finally lost that fish mid fight. Almost the perfect 50
Couple guys in another boat saw I was doing well, put down the trolling gear, and anchored up near me. I just lost that one fish as they pulled up, and told them that was almost #50 in a row and they looked at me like "yeah....right". I think the 3rd triple header in a row where both of them were hooked and I was hooked up had them convinced.
