Indian Creek area, 12/21

Got out for a few hours, didn't start until 1030 as I waited for the temp to get above freezing.  Fished until 3 PM.

It was slow, caught a half dozen smallies on the Ned rig and a 3.3 swimbait.  Fish were deep, out in 15-25 FOW.

No one out there on a beautiful but cold Saturday, only saw 2 other boats.  Saw more eagles than boats, great time to get out for the eagle watchers.

WT 53-54

I am glad you got out.  That’s a pretty fish in the pic.

Nice one . Looks like a Meanmouth?

I won't opine whether it is a mean mouth, but telling the difference will become harder and harder. Mean mouths are not sterile. Try to imagine a bass that is 1/3 large mouth, 1/3 small mouth and 1/3 spot, with a touch of Cherokee.

Could be a mean, it has a faint lateral line.
