A couple of days ago I saw the weather forecast for today - cloudy with little to no wind and I made plans to fish today because these kind of days in the winter seem to always be good days to fish the Ned.

It was pretty good from 0730 to 1100 and then got a little spotty.  Usual winter time stuff, steep banks with timber or steep chunk rock banks were holding fish.  I'm dragging a 1/8 oz Ned on the bottom and most bites are in the 10-25 foot range.

I caught one keeper on a jerk bait, a fat 15 inch rainbow on a Wiggle Wart but the rest of my fish (22) were on a Ned.  9 were keepers, mainly 15" spots, but caught a couple of decent smalls and another keeper LM.  

Only saw one other boat today, I was a bit surprised there weren't more folks out there.

WT 45-46

Sounds like a good day to me Jeff! Much better than working and a couple of nice ones on the deck.

Again Jeff, some really good looking fish. I don't have the trout pattern figured out on Stockton yet, but I'm working on it...:goodjob:

Luck is where preparation meets opportunity...... Or you could just flip a coin???B)

Dang that rainbow looks like its a crossbreed football.

Seems like every trout I caught in the main lake, six or seven in all, was a fat and healthy bugger.

             Jeff I just can't believe the shape of that trout. Fatty for sure.

I am thinking that fish figured out how to catch and eat shad.

Looks like a Great Lakes trout.
