Drowning minnows… Beaver Lake
Pushed start time back to about 9… Got down to about 22 degrees… Yeah that kind of takes the pleasure of fishing away for me… Got up to about mid 50’s with light wind out of the south… Took a gentlemen on a trip that has never experienced rigging before… He’s done trips with cranks, single pole brush, LS sniping etc…
Started out really good… Had like 9 in no time… Lost a couple on top and had two pop off on the surface that the net caught the fish… We are doing something right lol… Lucky
Their mood changed on us quick… They went to the bottom and would come up to eat about every 20 or so minutes and then pick up for 15-20 minutes… That became the cycle… Got him a limit, visited, enjoyed being outdoors and quit about 2…
Setup was slow vertical trolling 16ft BnM BGJP’s, 1/2oz BnM C&C minnow rigs, 1/2oz Vanguard Tackle by Pico Lures with a 1/16 chartreuse scope eye jig head with either pink/white tube or yellow/white…
WT was 45, water clarity was pea green, lake elevation was 1118.4… Most fish caught were relating along the creek channel in 10-11 fow and keeping baits about a foot off the bottom… Moving .2-.3 mph…. Slow, slow
Back at it next week… Fingers crossed that wind stays low…
Good Fishing and God Bless
