Property Name : Boren Lake
Reservation Date : 09/29/2020 All Day -
Total Fish/Sizes : 17 13" to 5.25 lbs
Lures Used : worms and fly rod

Fished Tuesday 9/29/20 on a day that started cold and calm and later got warm and windy.When I arrived bass were feeding near the boat launch so I grabbed a frog and picked up three before launching the kayak. Fished from 7:30 am till 2:30pm and caught a total of 17 bass of which 3 were under 14" and removed. The largest was 5 1/4 lbs. Picked up 18 large bluegill on a fly rod around the boat dock.

All the fish came from the shore line and nothing around the marked structure. There is significant vegetation around the lake and crank baits are difficult but possible to use. Caught three bass on frog,two on a chatterbait ,3 on 4" tx rid worm pump/chrt, 6 on 5" pump/chrt yum dinger wtless and 2 on a wacky.

The water visibility is 18" and dingy.

Thanks for the report Joe, that's a very productive day!  The shock survey also found the fish were relating more to the shore line grass than structure for now, but sure that will vary over time.
