As the result of some well-intended advice, Durel and I made a speck-run to Lake Decade on Wednesday, arriving to find the forecast 5 to 10-knot easterly already at 15 and with a lot of north in it. Our first drift resulted in a rat red. Our last drift - a fishless 2 1/2 hours later - resulted in a nice bass!! :confused:
Then we picked up the boat and drove down to the end of the road, launched again, and took off to Lake Mechant. There, in five hours of heavy-hitting some semi-sheltered shorelines with spinnerbaits and popping rigs, we caught nine reds (All but one short), one fair flounder, one mediocre speck, and one nasty drum. :p
It was a LONG drive home! :(
