Thread: Found a bed today..

Went to the electric-only lake today after the rain storms passed, and found some shellcracker beds in 8-11 FOW. I threw 3 different colors of Trout Magnet, and a bunch of my hand-ties, with nibbles and power wiggler bits and such - no dice. Put a red wiggler on a 1/32 bare head, let it go to the bottom, and I finally started getting bit. They would suck up that worm and head for the timber like freight trains. (Why are the beds always next to a gnarly sunken treetop snag-o-rama?). I had 3 really big ones break off on 3 lb Sunline Troutist Area Meister line, trying to keep them out of that brush. Later I caught one that had one of my jigs still in his mouth! There were also some bull bluegill hanging around. I had a GREAT evening, and took home a cooler full. The water was 77F; 3 weeks ago it was still 65F. I'm thinking there's going to be some full moon action coming up. Heck, it is already starting.
