I dinged around to much and got out about a half hour later than I wanted too. I did find a replacement measuring board at Bear Trax. Unfortunately you can't see the numbers; I'll have to take a black permanent marker to it. On my first minnow drop I had a really good fish on but it got off half way. Probably a pike or bass. Then there was nothing. Note to self, always lead with a spoon or Rapala
At 4:15 I went and drilled a hole a little to the North of where I had been fishing. I put down a #4 Rippin Rap and immediately fish came to it but wouldn't hit. So I put down my new VMC Tungsten Jig (glow) with a Gulp Minnow with a waxie and immediately brought up a 9" crappie. I got two more, then drilled another hole and got my stuff. They were on the minnow immediately. I missed the first couple bites but then I started catching them. Then I got two bullheads in a row on the minnow. Then I started getting some small sunfish on the VMC jig. I got two 10 inch crappies on the minnow and one on the VMC that I kept and an 8" sunny which I didn't keep. Eventually the fish got finicky. I went and checked my other holes but nothing was there. I went back and got a couple more 9 inchers. I stopped fishing after my last 9 incher at 7:35PM
2 Bullheads
5 Sunfish
13 Crappies
and a bunch of missed fish
