Report On “Beaver Trip 5/9Pm Thru 5/14Am”

As you'll know the weather did not cooperate !!!!!!!!!!

The only daylight hours that were NOT "White Caps" everywhere was for about 2 hours Tues evening and 3 hours Weds morning...

I gave up this morning after the storm destroyed one of the docks, less than a 100 yards from the camper, at Lost Bridge Marina and we lost a tree about 30yards behind the camper; plus serveral large limbs down in the camping area....

My son hook up with one , about 8-10 pounds, but we didn't get it in the boat for a "for sure" weight, Tues evening....

I chased three different small schools Weds morning that would break a 80 yards to my left, as I would turn and get about there another school would break a 100 yards behind me, etc,etc for about 30 minutes and they were all gone when the sun hit the water...

To answer the question about my boat – It is a 1999 Ranger "walleye" boat.. In prior years they were called the "Fisherman" boats.....

As far as a "Mud Line" the only mud lines I seen were (of course) on the windy banks and they only came out 3 - 6 foot.....( Not much mud in that end of the lake )

I didn't stick around to take pictures of the down trees but, here is what is left of the outside dock at lost bridge marina....

I may try again in a couple of weeks.........

Yeah Z, the weather has been terrible this week, I like fishing out of Lost Bridge myself and just could not get a day this week where it was worth driving up there and launching. That storm caused some damage here in Bella Vista, big limbs and a few trees came down. Hopefully the weather will be better on your next trip.
