Yesterday I decided to try Ray's side of the lake and went up Bear Creek to Stinking Creek. I found several bait balls and fish while trying out my newly mounted Raymarine Dragonfly. We anchored in 35' of water and proceeded to eradicate the white perch invasive species. The wife accompanied me on this endeavor and we had a good time. We caught around 50 or so but only kept about 25 selects because I am tired of filleting fish. All of the fish came on medium minnows this time, I had a few hits on the jigging spoons but didn't get a hookup all day.

I was quite anxious to try out the Dragonfly because most people here are praising the Humminbird or Lowrance units. I was tickled pink with the Dragonfly and it performed up to the standards I was hoping for. I also got to try out the Co-pilot that I purchased for the MK Powerdrive that I recently purchased and liked it a lot, but I may be able to convince the wife to upgrade to a I-pilot if MK will ever come out with a conversion that will let you use the foot pedal as well as the hand control on a PD unit.

All in all it was a great day with little wind for a change and we plan on going out again tomorrow. BTW the white perch that we deemed to small did not make it back into the water.....the seagulls had a feast.
