Soooooo we head out today and find blue skies, air 60ish degrees in the am. water 61 on west side.Last week the guys were killing them at the boat docks...today it was reeally calm, not much action there first light.So we forgo the bait n wait and head out to the damn.We pulled needlefish,crankbaits and such for nada.(bout hr.n half of nada) So we tie on some worms and start pulling them around....bingo. Bite stayed pretty steady most of day.Last week had nice size to the fish(2lbs avg)...this week much smaller (1.5lbs) or so?
Avg. but in nice shape, full tails and great fighting.Got 3 that went 3lbs or so.Wind was light most of day, which was suprising, water 63 in aftrnoon,air not much beyond 70.Beautifull day out on the lake.We ended with something like 12 or 13 between 3 of us.Had one come unbuttoned at the boat(small kind)which I included in count. :)
At 10till 4 the patrol boat came and rounded us up......just one more...?
Good times....good luck all. :)
btw: I pulled a Tady 45 on my short stick for an hr or so at first light....nothing...those yellows must take a little time to acclimate..... ;)
