Reservation Number : 27251
Property Name : Backus Ranch
Reservation Date : 03/12/2021 All Day -
Total Fish/Sizes : 56 fish from 12” to 20”. A few 5lb footballs
Lures Used : Chatterbait, Swimbait, Frog, Flies (Diver)

Water 63 degrees.  Windy and mostly cloudy air temp high 60s (guess).  Water relatively clear 3 ft visibility.  

All day long action.  54 bass and two rainbow trout.  No giant fish this time but several around 5 lbs and lots of nice 3-4 lb fish.  All very strong and healthy.  Returned about 10 fish under 14” but the rest thrown back were all good sized and strong fighters.

We could have had lot more fish but once we got to about 25 I started focusing on the frog.  Fewer bites for sure but super fun.  Especially as the water was relatively clear so sometimes you could see them following the frog and the take or refusal.
