    Default Friday on Monroe


    I hit the boat ramp earlier today, and I was still 5th in line. But we all got on the water with no trouble. The air temp was much cooler, the water temp was much lower, and the wind was from a new direction.

    I headed out into open water and shut down to find out what the wind was going to do. I relocated the boat to take advantage of the wind drift and set out the rods.

    The first pass was just a test pass so I re set, but a little bit more off to the west. Started to make the second pass and the rod goes off. Skunk Off-first fish in the boat. I let the wind take me out towards the center of the lake and pick up two more fish along the way. All in all I made 4 passes this morning and ended up keeping 8 fish. I had one throw back and two early releases. Not bad!

    Back on the trailer by 11 AM.


    another good day at the office !

    Was hoping the bite would pick up after this little cool weather.... But still a fun day I'm sure... Next week the wind looks like it will cooperate better..... Plan to get out a couple of times. Planning on scouting some other areas if the grass isn't too bad. Thanks for the report!

    Fished monroe this morning as well. Sure wish we could have more options with boat ramps. Not sure, but may have talked with you, Slim Jim, on the way out of the ramp. Caught +/- 25, 13 of which made it to the grease. Couple of fish pushing 13". Fish seem to he eating well, full of minnows and small shad.

    I think you are right.We did talk at the ramp. It was nice getting to meet you. I enjoy meeting and talking with the other people on the lake. They are always a good bunch of people. Hope we meet again.


    another good day at the office !
