Since my jig trolling lesson with vbottom and spartannation back in June I've been doing well most times out. Well enough that my wife and I can enjoy a crappie dinner without wondering when we'll be able to again. However, I've been fishing waters that I'm familiar with.

This morning I finally made the long drive to a lake that vbottom & spartannation do well on, but that I've never seen. While driving down the interstate and getting closer I could see flags blowing in the wind, from an east wind. Yuck!

Sure enough, there was a good little chop on the water. I tried all over and many places more than once to show them different colors but only scratched out 3 keepers.

I wish the weather had been on my side but I did learn the lay of a new lake.

To sooth my ego I hit a local lake this evening. All is goodReality Checked
