Thread: I feel like the Lone Ranger. Not going to post anymore if you guys don"t.

I'm not going to tell you how much I enjoyed your post.....but you must be more detailed on the specifics...great catch & pic....

I'll try to make a post of our next trip. I havent been taking pictures, as nothing too eventful has happened lately. Really hate to make a post describing that I dont know what Im doing, and we spent 5+ hours to catch a handful of mediocre fish!

Daughter and I went to Lemon on Monday afternoon. Found water that was 75 degrees and the water was really dirty. Did manage to catch a few, had two 12 in crappie, 4 10 in crappie and a half dozen bluegill. Crappies were all caught using a crappie slider chat with orange fire tail and a Kalins triple threat in john deere color. The bluegill all were caught on had tied jigs that I tie chart head/black squirrel tail body.All fish came in 6 to 8 feet of water.Water was to muddy to see any bluegill nests, but never had a hit in shallow water where I had found them before. When we put in the lot had room for a couple of boats and only 2 trailers in over flow parking. When we took out, we were the only trailer in the lot. Stll had a good time fishing with daughter. Oh I forgot, she is 34 and I am 63.

I had to bump my trolling speed,today up to 1.7 to 2.0 mph changing it running cranks almost on the bottom changing the depths as the lake depth would change from 10' to 14'. Because of the weed kill, it was a pita to keep weeds off the hooks. Water was clearing up very nicely. If running next to the bank, I stayed out from it in 10' to. 12' also. Bass went back in the lake. There are some chunky yellow perch in the lake as well. Ate the perch and 8 crappies tonite. Main parking lot today was never full. Will play on Monroe tomorrow and see if I can snag a walleye.

Your learning as I have read your postings on Main Forum. Make your postings any time and if you have any questions, always ask. We all will try and help as best as possible.

Not going to tell you about my last weekend trip of about 50 bluegills. Not going to tell you about the awesome trip turning bad when my phone dropped into the lake faster than when the asteroid knocked off the dinosaurs. It's still too soon. Can't talk about it... sad face

how did you send this IF your phone fell in the water?? I guess you're not going to tell that part?
