Beautiful pictures, thanks for taking me along!
Well have the B-n-L coming to town, so I'd thought I would scout some other waters. Thursday went to a old favorite Harney & for the 1st time in memory /no trolling poles, just 2 jigging. Caught 9 or so in 10 fow @ the 46 bridge, only 1 keeper, so went through the rest of the river up to lake entrance for 3 more hrs without a bite. Can tell my attention span started to wander, taking picks of some grazing on-lookers. So packed it in & went to Jesup, for a few hrs to finish the day. Found 8 boats over were I'd been catching lately, so bypassed the crowd & checked near by pads. Found dead tilapia & some of the fry hatch floating, guess some of the low forty degree nights cold shocked some fish. Also noticed the lack of shoreline activity. Decided to try a area I haven't been in the thick bulrush cane & snatched up some decent fish in a hr time, so thought things were in place for Friday's scheduled trip in Bearlake Slab daddy's boat....Well day 2, we started in the cane & only managed a couple, so it was agreed if we didn't catch 6 in a hr, we'd move on, no takers in a quick pass through the wood, & only a couple in the pads, so thankfully Leonard had his trolling equipment in tow & we tried near shore. Was slow as well, till 1 pm, then hit a quick few, including a 1#11oz 14 1/2" fish. Told Leonard it's a good fish most anywhere, however, just about as good as they come on Jesup, so the 13 Friday & 9 Thursday all got released as we both didn't feel like cleaning. No complaints, what so ever, been a good 2 month run on this shallow bite for this lake. It's fading, but the next moon phase should bring the last spawners in, hope your getting out on your favorite lake/river & lowering the water levels, till next time keep in the faith!

Another good trip Jeff. Leonard is one of the folks I need to get out with. My schedule has other ideas. My brother and I had a good day last Saturday but found them tough for the rest of his stay. I’m hoping to get some of those that get active next moon. You’ve had a good run, I agree. Good things happen to good people.

Sounds like a scouting trip and then back to your happy fishing grounds. Good job Jeff.
I'm back in Virginia and we are getting snow today.

Nice pictures Jeff, still waiting for the big push shallow for my river fish. Caught 21 Friday all but 1 was caught casting deep. Looks like it’s going to blow the firs part of the week then really warm up. That should get em going.
I think that was my old boss on the shore line was wondering what happened to the $&#%@$#?
Well the snow will give your back a rest, then maybe you can ease into some perch, before you start pulling them 2# ers over the gunnel again....enjoyed our trips this yr.
