Definitely have to make sure you're watching for the freighters on the St. Clair River, they come up fast and are much bigger. Awesome to look at from that close just to take in their size. At long last, some walleye for the cooler. At least we put a couple in the cooler during our fishing gig on the St. Clair River, Michigan trip. Taking in the freighters, reminded me of being at my father's who lived on the St. Clair River for 10 years and loved watching them go by his house, blowing the horn. https://www.toledoblade.com/sports/golf/2026/06/06/nelly-korda-seizes-share-of-3rd-round-lead-at-us-women-s-open-with-late-birdie-spree/stories/20260606111 https://www.toledoblade.com/sports/golf/2026/06/06/nelly-korda-seizes-share-of-3rd-round-lead-at-us-women-s-open-with-late-birdie-spree/stories/20260606111#comments Sun, 07 Jun 2026 04:01:36 GMT https://www.toledoblade.com/sports/golf/2026/06/06/nelly-korda-seizes-share-of-3rd-round-lead-at-us-women-s-open-with-late-birdie-spree/stories/20260606111 LOS ANGELES — After Nelly Korda went winless last year, she endeavored to change her mindset.
