Last week I finally found some success on a lake that I haven’t had much luck on in the past. I figured that I might try to build on that this week again. I started out in the spot that I found the fish last week and they were still there although not quite as active. Water temp was 66 degrees. Air temp was around 60. Things are warming up nicely here lately. This was the first fish of the morning.

I released her after her photo op. Then I caught a few males. Smallest was 12 and the largest was 14.

Things slowed down a little so I grabbed my 10ft jigging rod and tried jigging in the branches of the tree that was in the water. I didn’t find much at first but then I hooked the biggest fish of the morning and managed to work her out of the branches.

I hooked into something else big in there but it immediately snapped me off. I moved on from that spot eventually and tried to explore some other areas. I really didn’t find much. A couple of Bass and this Pumpkinseed that went about 9 inches. I let that one go back.

All in all it was a good morning. Brought a few home again to eat. Going to try to go again maybe at the end of the holiday weekend.
