Reservation Number : 36246
Property Name : Salt Lick Lake
Reservation Date : 05/13/2023 All Day -
Total Fish/Sizes : 33 - 3 culls - 3.2 Lb (1), 3 lb (3), 1.5 - 2.5 (26)
Lures Used : Underspin, Brushhog, Craw various colors, Ned rig

Great day at new spot for both me and Bass Assassin fishing buddy, Scott Wheeler.  
 

On the water just after sunrise and encountered a touch of rain that blew off quickly to partly cloudy sky's and light wind.  Water had about a 1 ½ ft  clarity, with clean bottoms., lake appeared to be at level.  We found most fish along the grass line or 10-20 yards off in 10-15 foot of water.  Slow retrieve was name of the game today.  Allowing lures to bounce on bottom or slow crank on the underspin.  Not much production along the old dam line shown in photos on site  (4 fish total), nothing hitting in stumps.  Allthough nothing significant by weight, these fish were healthy and fought above their weight class.  Fish seemed relatively scattered, finding them all along the inside perimeter.

That Salty Report Pretty Much Licked It.
Nothing Huge But A Full Day Of Consistant  Strong Healthy Fish.
First Time On The Lick, Neat Little Lake.
Spent Some Time Talking Wit The Owner, Very Friendly & Helpful
May Just Have To Try Out Long Lake & Blue Lake After Speaking With Him.
As Always Steve I Enjoyed Your Company And Always Appreciate Getting To Cast A Line With You.
Look Forward To Our Next Adventure,.
Tight Lines Brother..
