Wednesday, Big M

[Quillback]

Got to the launch at 0700, which is just at dawn this time of year.  Air temp was at 44, and there I was wearing shorts.  Fortunately things warmed up fairly quickly, and by 10 AM I felt like Lawrence of Arabia crossing the Sinai on a camel.  Well, I was in a boat and not riding a camel, and it was Table Rock and not the Sinai.

And my name is not Lawrence.

But with that sun beating down on me and no wind, I was feeling like I was out in the desert.

As far as the fishing, it was fair, caught 15 bass, mostly spots, nothing over 15".  Most came on slowly dragging a 1/2 oz jig with 3/4 of a Structure Big as a trailer.  Had a couple early on a top water.

Water temp was 70-72.

Actually, it is hump day, so the camel reference is appropriate.

Glad to see you back on the water.

It's good to be out again.

Fun reading and thanks for the post.

Sounds like a great time, how many whopper floppers  did you see running across the lake??? I here they are migrating!!!

[Quillback]

I know this is hard to believe, but I did not throw the Whopper Plopper - fished a walk-the-dog lure for a top water.  Not much top water stuff going on that day.

That guy named Ned would have caught em too. Just sayin.

[Quillback]

I think you're right Ham, next time I'm out I will have the Ned stuff with me.

Heck, no wonder you didn't catch any big uns. How can you go fishing and not throw a Whopper Plopper? That's like going to a steakhouse and ordering chicken.
