WINDY!!!

We had luck with plastics when the wind would allow us to fish.  Mostly smaller bass, though my buddy had on a good one that broke free.  We harvested 12 bass and 3 crappie.

Lake is full and weeds are growing rapidly.  Emergent weeds now outline the old dam, with many big bluegill cruising and/or spawning in the area.  We weren’t fishing for them, but must have caught 12 or 15 beauties, all released.  If we had fished for them, I think we could have caught three times the number.  Fun, but please release these guys!

Patti, the owner, helped us jury-rig an anchor that actually held the boat even in the worst gusts.  We left it in the john boat for other club members facing windy conditions.
