Trip Report

[MSUFisherBear]

Went out today in the Yak. Fished primairly for trout. Used Berkeley Powerbait eggs with the old egg sinker/split shot set up. Using 1 Orange and 1 white as suggested. Started the trip at Rockaway and paddled up past the mouth of Bull. First cast produced a keeper bow. Then set in the dry spell. Fished for about 3 hours. Tried moving up and down the bank with no luck. Not even a bump. 

Decided to pack up the Yak and run down to powersite.Again, first cast produces a keeper then nothing. The one at powersite was real interesting though. Still fishing with the eggs. Started to retrieve from my cast and, wham, the bow hit it as I was retrieving. First time that's happened to me. 

Thought I'd be wise at that point and tie on a Rebel Craw. Worked it with a fairly slow retrieve but no go. 

Still a good day to be out on the water and thankful for this beautiful weather we've been blessed with. Hope you all had tight lines too.

Thanks for the detailed reports Bear.  I too am trying to learn this part of Taneys bass.  August tourney there and I'm the type that gets to know a fishery before I donate my money.  I will share any info I find on my ventures and maybe help us both out.
