Members breeves2245 Posted May 31, 2015 Members Posted May 31, 2015 After Brittany almost threw me a shutout Saturday, I high tailed it over to Windsor this morning. Four bass, three were nice slot bass and several bluegill with eyes bigger than their stomach. Only two of the six or seven would have been worth keeping. Beat the banks with a Baby Torpedo, Rapala X-Rap Prop and a small spinner with gold/silver blades. At the last minute out the door I picked up a light jacket, glad I did. It was a bit cool but the jacket made it a perfect morning. No boats in sight until well after sunrise. I may be done with Brittany, it's just tough on me. Good looking lake, but the chance for larger bass is not worth coming up empty. I have to put some electronics on the boat before summer, I want to fish offshore once the heat gets here.
Quillback Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Were you driving a white SUV/Crossover type vehicle? I was getting my exercise in walking the Windsor dam and saw someone pulling out about 1 PM or so. I haven't fished Brittany in a couple of years, but I used to do OK, once the water got warm, fishing a jig in 10-20 FOW. I'd parallel my boat to the bank, keep the bow in that depth range, and throw in front of the boat, let the jig hit bottom and drag, hop it back. Windsor has been fishing a little tough this year as far as numbers, but pretty good average size.

Members breeves2245 Posted May 31, 2015 Author Members Posted May 31, 2015 Forgot to mention. I was motoring over to a new spot and as I approach a cove I see a guy swimming. Out for his morning exercise but if he did not have that blue noodle float in tow I would not have seen him and would have come way to close to him. He was in a black swim suit. Great exercise, but a bit risky.
