    Default Weekly Meetup 3-04-24 Slow Day


    We met up around 11 this morning at boat ramp with muddy water and overcast skies .
    And a steady ESE wind 8-17mph . Temp was 62 , was supposed to have been 67 according to the forecast with a high of 72 .
    It never made to 70 .
    With a slowly rising lake level , the fish had lockjaw .
    I was fishing my 6’6” TFO trout and panfish rod paired with my Daiwa Presso LT1000 , spooled with dark green Daiwa J-braid and 4# Floroclear leader .
    I twitched my tungsten jig and Trout Magnets all day , first with a regular TM body , but later switched to a mini TM .
    My buddy fished a roostertail and jigged a TM around the riprap to catch 11 green sunfish to keep the skunk away .
    I stuck with my twitching and managed to catch six small gills four bass , and a nice size green sunfish. Three out of the four bass were small , one was micro size .
    Tough conditions and small catches , but a fun challenge .
    We changed ramps three times , but never found any nice fish .
    Best ones of the catch .

    Your weekly meetings to fish are always a success. Over my military career I wish all the meetings I endured had been like yours…

    They thought they were big. Like buckeye said, your meetings are always successful. Glad you found some and went home with a smile.
