• After hitting Raccoon

    Got on lake at 1:15 and left at 6:30, forgot to put counters on pontoon but estimate we caught close to 100 and kept 40.. nothing big, biggest 6-7 fish were 12 in., rest were 9-11 in. mostly in the 10-10.5 in. range, step son kept some dinks.. lots of small fish caught.. we also caught 8-10 white bass.
    Water temp to started out 65.6 deg and when we left 64.6 deg, fish were caught casting jigs in 14-20 ft of water with most fish in the 10-15 ft range.. Bite was very light for the most part, barely feel a tap or weight on line. Colors use was about every color with most hits on black/chart curly tail on 1/16 oz weedless jig head and a minnow head 1/16 oz spinner w/blue,pink and white bodies.
    Honestly when they were hitting could they would hit about any colr thrown as long as fished super slow.
    No Raccoons were killed during this trip Oh yeah my new to me pontoon boat ran awesome, the Johnson 70 hp 4 stroke purrs like a kitten..runs 20.3 mph w/empty livewell and 19 mph full.

      nice catch --- and there's nothing wrong keeping dinks -- they are excellent fried with bone in just like bream.
