Quebec Fishing Reports
Big BruisersMay 14, 2004
Fished with Jim & his nephew, Jim today and they had a ball! The morning temps were 65 degrees and the water temp was 48 degrees. Damn cold night! The winds were from the South at 5 to 10 then increased to 10 to 20 and died off completely by late afternoon. Over 100 bass caught today up to & over 5 pounds. Jerkbaits seemed to work the best with most of the fish coming off of deep edges. There were 3 key spots that were responsible for the bulk of the fish today. Many other places had fish as well! An above average day, finally!
