When I arrived this morning |
The experience with mosquito's on Thurs. morning didn't have me rushing out the door this morning. I arrived at about 5:15 and a truck was there. Same guy who was there last weekend and I think he had the guy who got the bullheads this week with him. They hadn't gotten anything yet.
I went down on the NE side and couldn't get anything to take the LiveTarget Popper. I then grabbed the Poison and quickly caught a 15" and then a 16" jumpin' bullhead.

15" Poison w/Swim Fluke Jr. White |

16" same Poison |
I might have had one more hit in the tube. By 6, it was clear I had caught what I could. I did briefly try a frog on the SE side.
|
Glass calm when I arrived |
Since no one was on the Jetty I took the North Jetty. I started out with the Whopper Plopper. Nothing in front of Center Jetty. The big one hit in the same area as I got the 20.5". The Mojo Crankster really handles those Smallmouth well. I landed it in the same place I landed the 20.5".

1st picture I took |
The camera ran out of juice after I took the second shot. I thought I had clipped the tail in that one and I did.
I slowly worked my way North, should have gone quicker, because by the time I got back to the N harbor mouth the wind had started up. I picked up the LiveTarget and managed to get a small smallie to hit it even though I had a cross wind. The fish ran toward me full speed and I couldn't really keep up. When I did catch up to it, it jumped and got off. It was 12" class fish.
I went through a few lures and got a pike on the Crackle Jerk Shad. I tried a couple more lures than called it a morning.
