Cloudy skies and calm conditions made for a fantastic day at Six O for PWF member Ken Youngblood and me. We picked Six O in part to avoid all of the forecasted rain. We fished from sunrise until around 3:30pm with about an hour break to eat lunch and troubleshoot a finicky trolling motor. Wind was almost non-existent until around noon when it picked up to about 10mph. We fished the entire lake, focused primarily on the shoreline and timber. Vegetation is manageable and water clarity is superb even with recent rain. Early morning topwater action was literally hit and “miss” as a couple of strikes didn’t result in hookups. However, the soft plastic bite was consistent throughout the day and the jerkbait worked well when the wind picked up. Final count was 54 LMB, majority 1lb or less but still fun to catch. A handful of fish stretched the line a litte more than the others and one monster shocked us both. It is Ken’s personal best and, after a couple of quick photos, was quite satisfying to us both as she swam away knowing she is back out there lurking and waiting for our next cast...

Congratulations on your PB, I know big fish lurk there but I always seem to book a windy day. Just for giggles what part of the lake held the big girl?
