    Default Barton Lake


    Went out to Barton lake today. Caught about a dozen good gills between me and my buddy. Might be heading back out this evening with my dad and brother. They are set up close to the beds but haven't spawned yet and are not aggressively defending the beds but they are made.

    Ended up with 36 yesterday between me and my dad. The boat ramp is off Portage road to the east on a side street called Fisherman's Lane.

    I grew up near there and that lake wasn't good to keep fish due to the paper company use to dump there water up stream, it was amazing Just after a few years they stopped dumping how fast the water turned clear this has been 30 years now

    Oh yeah, I also watched a guy drop his boat on the launch instead of in the water because he disconnected the strap before he backed down the ramp.

    It was a 2 year old ranger aluminum boat. I felt really bad for the people. It was a very nice boat. I went back tonight and caught another like 35 with my dad. I am going to get this freezer filled up if I ever stop eating them all.
