• Testing a New Bait......

    Got out early, actually had to wait a !/2 hr before setting up til' the light in the sky showed. Was restricted to the N/W side of the lake due to the wind & noticed right off the surface W/T was about 8 degrees lower than last week...was 76F in pic below. Cold front past through & wind Hmmm was wondering how things would pan out. Well, I ended with 35 & did not have one under 11", although biggest was only 13"...all got put back this morning, freezer lookn' good these days. Very aggressive bite, had 3 specks twist the rod holders that usually only happens with the cat's/gar's. Ok, the "new" bait.... been running low of beetle spins, so decided to match up a few ebay items, red/white red devil Colorado blade & a 1/4 oz bullet head w/#1 sickle hook...everything a bit bigger, well 3 of the 13"ers took the offering & 8 total hook-up's so I think they"ll be alright....It looks like the cooler temps have them heading to the lakes, get some fellas....
