10-01-25 Weekly meetup

Met up with my fishing buddy around noon to a lake with a lower level I’ve seen in a long time. Maybe the lowest .
Weather forecast called for NE winds 4-8 , they missed it . At the first location a 10mph+ wind was blowing from the SSE . We moved to a location on the south end of the lake which should have put the winds at our back , WRONG ! It was blowing from the NE according to my iphone compass , white capping the surface .
I ended up finding a section where I used the wind to cast at an angle parallel to the bank and was able to start catching fish .
I ended up with total of 31 for the two and a half hours we actually fished .
Most were caught on my shortened Abu Garcia MB3 and Soare XR 500 and 2# P line Floroclear and my micro streamer jigs .
My best fish was a decent shellcracker caught on a called “ last cast” . Made me want to stat a little time longer , but my buddy had had enough of the wind , so we packed it up and headed home .

Tough conditions but you made it work and caught some. Good job.

I’m glad to hear that you’re getting out with your bud. 31 fish is enough to keep most of us happy. Aside from my project boat steadily plodding along, I picked up my Jon from the doctor today. Maybe I’ll post a couple of pics ive caught one day soon. Keep knockin em out, ya done good today!!

As always Great colors.
