• Lake Talquin

    It has been almost a month since I have had my boat in the water. I sold my house and have spent the last month tying up loose ends and trying to get moved. Talquin Maggie and I decided that it is time for a Fish Fry and we headed off to Talquin Sunday morning. It was in the low 30's with no wind when we started and warmed up nicely...Beautiful day all day long. We found the fish in the channel and caught fish all day. The smaller fish seemed to bite the best in the morning but the bigger slabs picked up during the middle of the day. We caught around 100 fish from 8:00 to around 3:30 when we quit...and they were still biting!! Hard to leave when the fish are biting but we had plenty of slabs for a good fish fry. Got back to load the boat and found out that a weld had broken on my boat trailer and couldn't load the boat. Jared, at Lake Talquin Lodge, hooked me up with Mike Clark and he was able to make the repair for me. Mike is a local guy and you couldn't ask for a finer man with a super nice family. We finally got back to Talquin Maggies house at 9:30 last night. All in all, a fantastic day!!!

    Here is a pic of what we kept to fry up.......................

      That's a fine mess of Talquin slabs. I was over there a couple of weeks ago but go sick and ended up in the cabin for the whole trip, but my two buddies did really well. Anxious to get back to the Lodge for another stay. Talquin is a heck of a fishery.

      Looks like you got a couple of jumpers in the photo. Now that's fresh fish.
