    Default Sliding in a Trip


    Tuesday was a beautiful day that just demanded a trip! We hit the road shortly after 4:00 pm, and headed to the lake, where we were greeted by the summer regulars at the Redneck Riviera! To translate, this dock is famous for sunbathing on the dock and swimming on the ramp! They will move, begrudgingly, to allow you to back your boat in. This is rarely a problem for me as I am fluent in Redneck, but it’s typically pretty funny. After launching among the masses, we made a beeline to the main channel, dodging floating logs that the raising to summer pool always brings. Water temps were 73-74, so I decided on deeper water brush. The first stop, no fish were at home, so time for some scanning. We found some on a favorite waypoint, hanging out in 8-10 ft in 23 FOW. Tuesday’s menu was a Junebug/Chartreuse Slider, and it took some swapping out to find the lure d’joure. When they slowed down, we decided to hit a known spawning bank, and they were there! So to sum it up, some are still partying, and some are moving toward a summer pattern.
    No on the water fish pictures today. Sometimes it just isn’t a good idea. I did snap a picture of my two best fishing buddies!

    Great catch, glad to see you back out again. I am actively pursuing the Gills right now, will get back to the Crappie in a couple of weeks. Tuesday was an awesome day, thought about those fish each time I passed the boat with the lawnmower. I use a similar net to get mine out of the livewell also.

    Thanks for the report. I try not to give away a spot in my pics unless it is a popular community hole. Yes, I do fish community holes at various times. Grin.

    Good job ET...
    'Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
    The blind see and the lame walk; lepers are cleansed and deaf hear; dead are raised up and poor have the gospel preached to them.
    And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me... Matthew 11:4-6
