Total Fish/Sizes : 32 LMB all 2Lbs+
Lures Used : Frogs, wacky rig, Flukes
The bullfrogs kept announcing the impending weather all morning and they were right. The fish must have heard “eat me before the weather apocolypse”, because they chased frogs all morning on the west bank and grass and in the northern culvert cove. Evening brought a sliver of occasional sunlight and a dry hat (clothes, not so much) and the frogs still were the meal of choice.
Alternated with wacky rigs and weightless flukes (color didn’t matter) and caught enough that the day would have been decent without the topwater action. About 22 of the 32 fish caught were topwater frogs (jerk and pop or paddle foot ribbit both worked).
We got wet, but caught enough to make it worth it.
