Shaky Head Fish |
|
Drop-shot Fish |
I had a nice time fishing some mid-lake structure with some spinning tackle, and I did throw a shaky head on a bait-caster too. I was having a hard time adjusting to controlling the fish with lighter line, and lost a few giants to be honest. Probably two that would have gone over five... I really hammered them the first day on this spot. The water temp. got to 80 degrees and things started to really slow. I got really worried about the sore on the biggest fish I caught too. If anyone knows, or has seen this, I don't think it is a good sign for this lake. This lake has an abundance of bass in the 16" to 16 3/4 inch range, and they are usually really fat too! I caught one that was 16 (no pic) that was bursting. I looked into its mouth to see if I might find out why, and sure enough there was a big old crappie tail sticking out. And, there are also some nice crappie in this lake, some of them seemed a little sickly though. Not sure if it was the thick water, high temp. or something worse. I really hope that the fish are okay, it is a great early summer lake!
