WEIRD DAY FRIDAY OR SHOULD SAY BITE.

[Chuck Adams]

I got on the water about 7:45 on Friday and took my time setting up. Figured I would be busy catching a cooler full of sandwiches so I had everything ready. The lake is definitely someplace to have your net because of the quality of fish.
Water was stained to muddy and I saw lots of people casting the banks on my way to the area I wanted to fish.
Water temp was 53-54 so I decided to concentrate on deeper fish.
Don’t really like to cast and wind much anymore.
First fish I dropped on appeared to be over 2 lbs and it bit fast.
2.70 in the box. Next fish same thing.
Another 2.70 in the box.
After that it was a slow day. Dropped on several what appeared quality fish and they just weren’t interested.
Finally caught a 3rd fish and it was a 1.98.
Dead Sea from that point on.
Last fish was caught at about 10:30-11:00 am and then a boat ride dropping on several more with them having zero interest.
I might add that I was fishing around 18-20 deep in 20-24 ft of water.
Released them all in grandsons pond on the way home so he can catch them when I’m gone.
That’s a total of 25 in the 2 pound range over the last 2 years that he can have fun catching.
Gonna get after them again tomorrow.

At least the fish you did catch were big un’s. They got lucky escaping the knife, oil, & can give someone else some fun.

I usually don’t knife anything over 1 1/2 pound. Release them.
