Lake Rousseau testing water for new lakes ..........

[jamin696]

Lake Rousseau was a good lake this weekend . its not the lake for the person that just likes to run an gun there is stump and trees all over the place and if up go off channel you better be going slow and looking out .... other then the strucher everywhere fishing was good for the most part crackers and gills for the most part but did find some specks the bigg one is 2.5 lb and found them in the last hour of day light in channel 10 to 15 ft on a bend that had sub tree and went back in the morning they was nothing there ... long line trolling channel with number one gold spinner with blue /white tub and 16 th oz jig with poppy seed grub 1 mpr and some crackers had eggs nice to see this ..lake has good boat ramp and lots of parking right now i think this will all change come oct. for sure .. i will be back to this lake in that time fore sure .Thumbs Up

Mike, thank you very much for detail of lake and catch.....................
Good looking boat ramp by the dam / structure everywhere but in narrow main
channel (thanks for that)
Really nice looking Shellcrackers (Red-ears) - caught them all "long lining" ??
Surprised that Spec's moved on you after you found couple locations, although,
with amount of structure - its their world..........
Again thanks for report................

[jamin696]

yes 813 long lining and i was the only one doing this i must of seen 40 boats all what tied off and fishing under bobers i seen the size they had when i would pull by them and they was always small one nothing like what i had .. while i was there i made friend with some locals and they said what i had was really good for this lake .... but yes long line pays off here forsure ...
