Just rubbed a little dirt in it and it healed right up. I started on the edge of goose lake and followed a similar path. Marked a ton of bait over around that area in the deeper water but had no takers. I wish I could have gone back and trolled about fifteen feet shallower than my first pass.

Great catch and sorry about finger.
OUCH THAT LOOKED PAINFUL . I DIDN'T GET BUT NINE . CAUGHT MOST OF THEM AFTER 12 AND LEFT ABOUT 1:30 . HAVE A QUESTION . THERMACLINE WILL THE TEMP OF THE WATER AFFECT IT ? IF SO THE WATER WASN'T BUT 84 SATURDAY . THE FISH HAVE NOT HAD TO GO AS DEEP TO GET AWAY FROM THE HEAT . ANYTHING I BELIEVED TO BE LAW HAS BEEN THROWN TO THE WIND AND RAIN THIS YEAR . I AM STILL CATCHING THEM 8 - 10 FT DEEP ON THE LEDGES NOT ANY DEEPER MAYBE 12 AT THE MOST . WELCOME BACK MATT
My experience has been that with the expected rain coming in the lake and them pulling water, the themocline will move. Especially further up the lake.Quote:

Thanks, Ken.
I believe the temp determines the dissolved oxygen which affects the thermocline if one even develops. The only defined thermocline that I have seen on the Rez has been only in the main river channel staying mostly deeper than 20'. Only one trip that I saw a clearly defined one. I haven't caught a fish deeper than about 8' since January. Even pulling cranks in 30' of water they were less than six feet deep.

We went out yesterday early afternoon and pulled some cranks for a couple of hours. No takers... Was using picos and arkie 350s 25 to 30 ft. Out. 1.6 to 2.07 mph out from roses bluff.

Man I hate that happened to your finger. When I take people fishing I stay on them about leaving that pole loaded and trying to take the hook out of a fish and not hitting the release and give the line some slack. It's not if, but when, a fish will flop and that crank or jig will come flying out looking for something to hook into, usually your hand. When it has happened I usually put a pair of needle nose pliers in line with the barb of the hook and one quick pull straight out against the barb and it comes out easily and surprisingly, nearly painlessly. But getting a hook past the barb into your hand usually happens sooner or later if you fish enough.
