Thread: Lake Lochloosa

Yesterday the fish were turned on at Lochloosa. The two of us kept 49 (miscounted the two-person limit), but we must have boated or lost double that. The small ones went back to grow a bit.

Not a lot of big ones but several over a pound.

The wind was terrible. We are fishing out of a little tinny I inherited from my Father-in-law and it is a miserable boat to fish in when the wind blows and not all that comfortable all the rest of the time.

The good news is that my fishing partner is now hooked on Crappie fishing and is rigging his 22 footer to start pushing jigs. He had a 'personal best' day yesterday catching the most, the biggest, and the smallest Crappie he had ever caught. He called his smallest "Aquarium Sized".

He is rigging dual seats in the front and everything. It should be a LOT more comfortable boat when the wind blows. More comfortable anytime as far as that goes. Nice to be able to get up and walk around a bit.
