Clearwater Lake Memorial Day
Haven't fished much all spring so I headed out to Clearwater at 0:dark thirty Monday morning. Figured the fish were pretty much spawned out so I pulled some crankbaits. Fished Logan Creek mostly and caught a bunch of fish. A bunch of short fish that is. Kept 7 decent ones for supper. Plus to top the day off, I also got to battle a 9 pound large mouth that hit my Flicker Shad. It was a lot of fun. Definitely the biggest bass I've ever caught. Thought about taking it home to hang on the wall, but had a change of heart. Too pretty of a fish to kill. Weighed it, admired it for a little while then let it swim. Had my best luck in the back of Logan near Webb Creek in 15-18 feet of water. Darker colors produced best all morning until the sun (and ski boats) came out. Sure felt good to get out again.
