Saturday, Big M area

Well done!

Quill on Saturday and we had a great day, really way more than I expected, but the bite got really strange for us around 10 o'clock.  The bite was really solid from about 6:30 to 9:30, they were just taking the rod out of your hands.  Up later in the morning they would pick it up and put it right down.  I mean you would feel a tug or a bang on the spoon and they were not there.  Still tons of fish on the locations, and we only fished 2 spots in 5 hrs. but they got fussy.

I'm sure they got a dose of us with all those repeated presentations.

That bite did get really weird later. I was dragging that Ned in 20 FOW, probably missed 5 fish in a row, no bite at all, it would just start to feel heavy, I'd set the hook, have them on long enough to know it was a fish, and they'd come off.  

That smallie whacked it, but it was a different bite also, had one on, probably another smalls, it got off, I let the Ned drop for about a second and the one I caught whacked it.  Had another nice brown fish follow that one to the boat.  

Fifteen fish in November isn't a bad day for us commoners. We are not in the same league as some on OAF. 😆
