    Default Pate Lake 2/19/14


    Couldn't have asked for a prettier day. Fished from 7:30-4:30. We never really got on them until about 1 today...but man we dialed in on some slabs. We troll with 10 rods (6 out the back and 2 rods on each side up front) and there were quite a few times we had quadruple hook-ups! Action doesn't get much better than that. Had only caught 21 at 1pm, when we had them figured out we had 81 by 4:30pm. Not sure how many were keepers bc they are on ice to be cleaned tomorrow. I'd guess we kept 35 that were all over 10 inches. Big fish was 13 1/2 inches.

    That's awesome, I know what you mean, those are the unforgettable days. I love having crappie flapping all around me and half my poles out of the water!

    Man great report. I graduated from Holmes county high. We use to ski and tube there a lot. Never knew there were that many slabs in that lake. It use to be called Pate Pond.. Good report!
    The only "easy" day, was yesterday!

    Nice report, It's always good when you can have 2 or more poles go off at the same time
    The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"

    Some call it Pate Pond and some call it Pate Lake. I'm from Holmes County as well. Graduated from Bethlehem. Small world brother.
