Made us work

Fished friday and sat with Kbillb. We fished pretty hard both days. Caught 12 friday with 3 keepers. Caught 19 today with only 1 keeper. Various baits. Good to be on the water. Beautiful weather. Saw deer, turkeys, coyote, wood ducks. Tough fishing but great being out on this beautiful lake.

Thanks for the report.

What part of the lake did you fish? Do you know what the water temp was? I haven't been out for 3 or 4 weeks.

We were up the White River. Water temps were 70 degrees. Pete Wenners claims the water temps are about 8 to 10 degrees higher than they should be this time of year. We were fishing in t shirts and shorts. A beautiful fall day but we need cooler weather!! And i hear its coming!!

Looking though my notes for the last couple of years, 2 years ago surface temps were at 67, this time of year, last year, which was a warm fall, they were at 70, I was out today and saw 68-69, this is around the Big M area.
