Got a classic Sunday morning late start. Got the yak in the water around 10am and proceeded to troll over and along the west end. No love on the troll. I went and checked out a couple of spots along the Catfish Cove area and didn't meter much activity in the 15-25' range. I moved a little deeper and started metering fish in the 30-40' range. Dropped anchor and was not able to stay on the spot due to wind and an anchor that would not hold bottom. By the time I realized what happened, a bass boat dropped the hook on the area I'd been working. Probably just coincidence, but still sour'd me enough to move along. Cruised over to the Flats and found the fish again holding in the 30-40' range. I couldn't get them to hit a mini-jig/cd3/5/kastmasters/Spoon. Finally dropped some powerbait and picked off 2 fish. By this time it felt like an arctic wind howling on and off across the lake, so I headed in while doing recon. Found a couple of good bass spots heading in that I'll hit up next time. Got back to shore and gave my fish away to a nice family who did not get any love for the day.
Chalk up another nice day at the Vine!
btw, I see the upload photo process is pretty weak, this explains why I don't see too many photos on this site. I'm an old member, returning to actively share fish reports. :)
