Fingerling
Water was crystal clear and all the fish seemed to be up shallow. The conditions seemed perfect, but it wasn't meant to be. I caught two bass, both super fat for their length. I saw plenty more swimming by and chasing my baits, but they just weren't biting. Out of the fish I saw, maybe one or two looked under three pounds. Lots of biggger ones in there. I got blown all over the place and my motor died twice, so that was crummy. Apparently something died upwind of the lake and the wind blew the scant at me the majority of the time. When that smell clears out I'll be back to try again. I think this lake will give up some fun days soon.
