Wind sucked, but Cranked a few.

[cevans]

Got to Lemon and had to wait out the lightening, but was on the water at 8:30. water still 59.5 degrees all day long,,wind was 15-25 mph gusting with 1.5 whitecaps..fish still deep,,used cranks,,1.4-1.8 mph trying to keep it at 1.6 mph, no boats,,no bank fishermen as they finally started charging their fees for parking or launching,,only maybe 15 boats all day if that. It was great except boat control sucked in the wind. Kept 21 before quitting at 2 pm. But! I did catch a 15.5, 15.25, 14.75. Couple of 14.5's. All. 21 were females...caught maybe 50 all together,,threw lots of 9 inch plus fish back. Big fish came out of 16-18' Creek channel. Bait balls started moving out of the channel about 2:pm...eggs aren’t ready but it won't be long in this heat. Couple weeks at the most. Small males,,had their black color and tuxedos on.
