Another good day in Eustis

Attachment 258300Tough decision whether to head to the lake this morning with the winds but after looking at the news saying the winds were going to be strong coming out of the NW, well I decided to take a chance to fish a spot I know on the N side hopefully to have a wind break there. Sure enough it worked and the fish were there, limited out again. After a rough ride back in when I return to the ramp there was a elderly gentlemen fishing off the bank, he had 1 little bluegill in his 5 gallon bucket, so when I had left he had several more fish in his bucket, it was worth it to see his smile...

Florida boy--i am on Beauclaire as u know--send me a pm re garding eustis

Crappiegirl1 pm sent to ya.

Good catch, and you're a good man for sharing. We get the chance to go so often, it's only right to help someone else. I have a story about that I'll share when we meet sometime.

Sounds good I would look forward to it and thanks.

Good catch - nice to hear that someone is and has caught fish on Eusitis -
Very rarely do we hear of action on that lake.
Thanks for sharing / pictures and especially tip of hat to someone on dock that did not opportunity to boat in lake

Hey Florida boy. I've been living off lake eustis for almost 10 years and never had luck there. Been boacting over to Carlton and dora. Can u share where you were and method. I'm usually a spider rigging type but will drop minnow and bobber. Thx tim...
You can pm me if u want.

Welcome from Orange City George.

Hi George, you are right it is a hard lake to fish, I spider rig a lot myself there. I don't fish there until Feb. and Mar. seems to be the only time I catch them there, after that it gets tough. Have a hard time catching fish along Lakeshore Dr. side so I will start around Dead river and work your way around west side of lake, stay about 20 to 30 feet off grass line this time of year. Haven't had no luck in the grass. Just have to work around the under water weeds with the low water so I just use a 1/8 jig and color white and chartreuse seems to work best for me. Tipped them with minnows sometimes. I fish about 3 ft deep in about 5 fow. Last week before the full moon was good but now they seemed to be scattered. Did catch 14 keepers yesterday and the bite was early and they got lock jaw after 10:30. Anyways I hope this will help you there and good luck.

Hey Phantom - did i say something wrong - or am too old to get the of what your saying about the
"like-dislike" button ?

Harold, Slab did a server upgrade/change and the like button dissapeared for a bit. Thats what Phantom was moaning about.

good for you and especially for paying it forward. give bunch of my extra's to the neighbor who sold us our house and who loves to eat fish just doesn't know how to catch them, plus the contankerous neighbor and my kids.

will be in villages week of march 4th and want to fish griffin and around there, with my buddies who were at the lake griffen get to gether.

Nice

No problem George, I single rig, might be there Sunday. Good luck

Are you fishing anywhere around grass-hopper pond?

If you are talking about grass hopper lake in the forest...no...Harris chains.

Used to fish there 50 yrs ago 59 now. Theres four lakes in that chain just gotta know how to get to them.
