straw hat Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Hit a bluff a couple of miles from twin bridges. Bite was light but consistant. Water temp was 57, water was heavily stained with about 1 foot visibility. Fished 6 hours and came home with 12 keeper crappie, 17" walleye, 15" largemouth (cpr) and a 2 lb channel cat. All fish were caught in 24 to 27 fow. There was also a million boats out today. Has a lot of trouble with people boating through where I was fishing. A great big lake and they have to come bother me. Oh well, it was a pretty day on the lake anyway. lol
minnowhooker Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 What a difference a day makes I went yesterday one truck in the lot when I got there and I was the only one there when I left at 1:30 usually 15 or so on the lot during the week.
straw hat Posted November 9, 2012 Author Posted November 9, 2012 I didn't go by the launch but I probably saw 20 or 30 boats go by today. I am sure that a lot of them were repeats but still, a busy day. I drove by the CC launch on hte way home and only one boat there.

straw hat Posted November 9, 2012 Author Posted November 9, 2012 Sure was Dutch. Set up my gear along a bluff and pretended I didn't have a care in the world!! lol
Dutch Posted November 9, 2012 Posted November 9, 2012 I was in the boat and wakes came close to going over the bow. The bite was good but hard to feel. We wound up with 2 limits of keepers and some toothies.
straw hat Posted November 11, 2012 Author Posted November 11, 2012 Hope you were out again today Dutch. Went bank fishing and the bite was on but the wind sure did make it challenging. Came home with 21 keepers (18 to 32 fow) and two nice channels. A 3 1/2 and a 4 1/2. Most were caught on a bottom bouncing rig similar to a lindy but a LOT smaller. Just too windy to use those slip bobbers today. A few boats this morning but not bad this afternoon. Deer hunting must not have been to good...never saw a deer hanging in anyones yard on the way home.
Dutch Posted November 11, 2012 Posted November 11, 2012 Good sounding trip hat. SOOO 21 keepers, I assume someone was with you. Nope not out. Honey do and go weekend. I won't be out before Wednesday if I am lucky.
straw hat Posted November 11, 2012 Author Posted November 11, 2012 My wife was not only with me but actually caught 12 of the 21. Yes, once again she outfished me. Good luck next Wed, I may be going again about then as well.
