Talquin 8-31-12

The lake was about 2' low last friday but I managed to boat 14 keeper specks and 2 nice gills. I was longline trolling in 14-18 fow, 1mph, green was the color of the day. I also lost 6-8 more keepers that spit the hook out right at the boat. All caught on Lightwire hooks.

I think green might be the color this year. I've been using a metallic green with a gold tail and catching them 2 to 1. As far as spitting the hooks out...those lightwires may have a bad taste!!!

My three favorite flavors: Fried Chicken, Sweet Tea, Tomato Samich, Corn, Peas, Butterbeans, and sometimes late in the afternoon......they like Coors!!

Great catch! Glad to hear the lake is coming back up! It was down over 3 foot last week. Talquin is dangerous to run when down over 2 foot.
