Black Bass

[wily]

i fished elk river sunday afternoon. water was muddy, and ranged between 49 at the mouth, and 53 up river under the bridge.

i only fished a couple hours, and i tried a jig, and crankbait. i fished a couple spots that are historically pretty good this time of year, and didn't catch anything.

our club had a tourney on saturday...i couldn't fish it, but from what i heard i didn't miss much. only 4 guys caught keepers (6lbs or so won) but one guy said they caught quite a few short fish on a jig around wood.

another buddy put-in at honey creek, and was so fed up with the water color that he loaded up his boat and went to eucha...said he caught 7 or 8 on a clown jerk bait in rattlesnake fishing it with long pauses, and short movements.

if you guys have never been to eucha you ought to try it...neat little lake.

on a positive note...the new boat ran good!
