I was worn out from the past few days of heavy fishing so I went to bed before 3PM and I got a good long night's sleep waking up just before 4AM. Normally an hour is about right to get me "with it" but this morning I didn't feel " with it" until after 6:30AM. Must have slept too much.
There was patchy heavy fog this morning on the drive up. I opened the car door and heard a loon calling from Sherman's direction. The loon continued to call while I got my stuff put in the boat. The two loons were over by Sherman's dock when I was preparing to launch. The one loon that was inspecting Sherman's dock swam along with me when I headed out.
The first spot was F Flat. Much to my chagrin a guy came out and started fishing from the dock. I started to the East of him. Didn't get a hit over there. I worked my way around the guy and caught a 13-inch bass in shallow along the juice dock on the orange SBKO. The guy went in and something busted back behind me out where I got into the school of small bass last Fall. I went to investigate and had what I believe was a good bass blow up the SBKO, but not get hooked. I couldn't get anything else. I went back toward the juice. Had the SBKO break off at the spool in shallow by the juice dock where I got that first fish, so I had to run in and get it. I ended up losing that orange SBKO to a pike over the juice. I also got a 17.75" bass on a junebug craw tube to the West of the juice.
I made a quick trip over to the Green Pontoon Dock and got a small pike on the orange SBKO. Then I went to Big Bass Point/Todd's Pond and missed my first couple of bites on the SBKO and a craw tube. More than a little frustrated. Stuff was getting busted up by the point, but I started out at the cane. I got myself on track landing a chunky 24" pike. Then it was game on for Platte Lake Specials. I caught 8 on the SBKO and 1 on the craw tube from 16" to 17.5". I also got a few smaller bass and some pike. A couple fish revealed there location and I managed to stick 'em.
Around 11Am I headed over to Double Cane and I got a couple small pike there.
I got psyched out by the way thunderstorms were re-developing and didn't go out on a perfect night.
14 Bass
9 Pike
