Shoot Fire!

If you know you know. Lake Poinsett is a “Shoot Fire” kind of place. I’ve made 3 trips up and caught a ton of fish each trip. And these are not spawning fish. I can only imagine what it will be like up there next spring. I took 4 rods with me and fished all of them. Some spooled up with Ester and some with 3# test Varivas Twitch Master. Used a 67 Slow Taper Special, 62 Diplomat Extreme, Palms Egeria, and 63 TenRyu Lunakia. It was very windy but found a little protection from it. Used a 1.5 gram Daiwa Gekkabijin SS jig head and really should have gone to a 2 gram with the wind being as it was. Caught shell cracker and bluegill. I have no clue what these fish have to eat in this lake but sure are thick, fat fish. Didn’t get on the lake until about 1:30 and pulled out at 4:30. Wife and I went over to the picnic area and had a nice supper she had packed in the cooler. It was a fantastic 2 days of non stop action and can’t wait to get back. Hot weather will return in a few days.

Sounds like a very enjoyable trip for you and the wife. My next trip out I have to go and find some more fish. My other spots didn’t hold what I thought they should for one reason or another. Also nice to have the time to get away and enjoy things like this. Good Job Randy!

Wow! When I see Shoot fire!, I head straight to that thread. Never disappointed.

Nice catches. Good pics. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us

Looks like an awesome fishery

Looks like you didn't have to move much to find them from the pics. You found the sweet spot there.

Shoot Fire and Kaboom!
Congrats on finding such an awesome honey hole !
