Thread: Where's the switch?

As is normal for me, got on the water shortly after the sun yesterday. Took the fish a few minutes to wake up, but the action improved nicely. I started tying my own a short while back and use them almost all the time, unless I get into some places that are extra grabby. Caught 4 keepers at my first stop and as boat traffic increases the action decreases. so off to stop 2. A dropoff in fairly deep water I expected to turn a fish or two, but no luck there. TM to stop 3 and boat a few more, then they slowed down, then there was none that didn't classify as tater chips, then nothing. This was just about 9am. From then till 11am when I pulled and headed home I only saw 1 other fish and it wasn't in my boat. It was like someone threw a switch and away they went. Finished the day with 9 keepers and a nice LMB. I sure wish I could find that switch and turn it back on from time to time. Beautiful day on the water and a big smile just the same. Gray and tinsel accounted for all but 2 of the keepers, black n chartreuse for the others. This time last year it was super cold and you couldn't get warm. Yesterday I was glad I had room in the hatches cuz I had to come out of some of those layers. Tight lines Y'all.

Skeetbum,
The switch got cut off on us at 10 am. today on the foot, but what some great weather for November. Glad you got out there and had some fun.

Switch back on. I got to Woods at 1:30 pm and stayed until dark. Had 11 keepers and several dinks. Fishing with Assanins in 24 FOW. Bite was steady but not frantic. I had left my power swich on so I had to jump my boat off. Only fished in 1 spot and I think that it was on someone's boo. Easy to find on the 798.

Good reports yall...Tight Lines

good report and catch
