South Long Pre-fish:
|
15.75" my second biggest fish of the day |
I got out for a few hours today with my boater Owen to pre-fish for next Saturday's Tournament on South Long. The lake seems to be a bit behind Platte Lake at this point. The warmest water we found was 55°F and it was pretty much 54°F everywhere. The wind was blowing out of the E SE yet again for the 3rd or 4th straight day. I guess the air temp got to 61°F today and there was no sun. We basically didn't catch very many fish. I got 5 but two of them were quality keepers at or a bit over 2lbs. We got everything on moving baits. Depending on the weather improving a bit this week, we have confidence in a couple of spots. Thankfully they both are fairly large areas. Being boat #1 should help.
The GOMH:
I arrived at the GOMH around 5PM and started on "the juice". All I got was one toothy bullhead on the Grass Pig. Eventually I moved to the SW side and there I started getting fish on the huckleberry Christopherson's Craw Tube. My 10th fish was this Toad Bullhead.
I'm not sure of the exact length because I didn't have my ruler along, but I'm calling it 19.5" for the
Derby. She was definitely close to 5lbs full of eggs. I caught a total of 11 bass at the GOMH. I left at 9PM
