A Mixed Bag Day
mai 4, 2006
What a day on the water! I fished with Bobby & Francois today on a couple of lakes. We started for lake trout & Bobby was the first to hook into a beauty of almost 5 pounds within the first 15 minutes. Into the livewell it went and shortly after, Francois lost one as well. Bobby landed his second trout about the same size and eventually, Francois caught one of his own, too. In only a couple of hours, there were three lakers taken and many other missed hits. By noon we were on Memphremagog for smallmouth bass and Francois was the first to score a real beauty of almost 5 pounds. Both of them were into fish consistently as over 50 bass were to be caught this afternoon. Fin-s tipped jigs were responsible for 100% of the entire day’s catch. With a warming trend finally here, the fish will definately be more active in the day’s to come. The conditions for today were absolutely spectacular! Air temps the mid 70’s with water temps almost 65 degrees in most areas. Sunny skies with no wind made for a very comfortable fishing day. All in all, just a great day to be on the water!!
