Saturday Fishing

[reeltor]

He he he...took the family to the bridge this afternoon and crushed them.
We loaded up on spot around piling #5 and had rock on just about every piling from 15 to 20 on the west side. I couldn't believe the lack of boats on a beautiful weekend....especially on the western shore side.
Still can't beat weekday fishing!

Maybe going in the afternoon is the ticket or everyone is getting their boats winterized Thanks Billj

Winterized ?

Isn't there another 2 to 3 months left to this year ?

The Shoals are heatin up...Thanks to someone, on this board (you know who) for making me think about the Shoals again...

Bait has been thick the last couple of days....Catching up to just under 30" there...Chartruese Bucktails with matching BKD has worked well....

Water temps must be gettin the Rock ready for the big feed before they take some time off....

Gotta agree about the weekdays...Rather have 2 hours in the evening during the week than 4 to 5 on the weekend...

Best part is that the fish dont seem to care what time of day it is lately..And I wont be complainin.....

Odd tide today. I believe 9:40 was low tide at Sandy Point. We had a slow morning, until about 10:00 or 10:15, then someone turned the switch on, and the fish finally got hungry and started to feed. At one point we had three on at once, and hooked about 10 in a one hour window.

Not by design but we mirrored Marty and Lou all day. I see how having buddy boats out and about can help getting you on the fish. This was my first attempt in a long time trying bottom fishing and it was a tough day. A few blues a few bite offs and a few crabs. It was nice to be out running the boat. Marty we need to keep Lou and Bob apart there quick wit could get us in trouble.

A good day on the water with a lot of fishing in the same locations as Lou & Marty with no catching. Team Lou and Marty out fished us big time today.

Don,
Are you winterizing now? If so, I've got room for you anytime.

Don is winterizing. What that means is he's washing down all his trolling rods and reels, checking the drag on them, putting new shads on his bucktails, shining up his spoons, checking his leaders for nicks, and sharpening hooks.

Take heart...I was on fire for two weeks with live bait on the bottom...A couple of days ago it turned for me...Bottom bouncing Buck Tails dressed with BKD's has worked....

I keep trying anything and everything and if something gets hot I am sticking with it...I am not a big troller so I have to do whatever I can....
