A Mother of a Day

I was back on the water again with the same guys as yesterday, but my brother Mike joined us as well. It was a little tight, but we managed to make it work! The weather turned out to be better than the forecast had predicted, with overcast skies turning to sunshine, early in the morning. Once again, there was almost no wind at all, making the fishing a little easier to accomplish. The water temps were only 48 degrees as we fished for lakers once more. It was a little tougher than yesterday as we only landed a couple with many others missed. There were also a few smallmouth landed with one of them being around 5 pounds. The afternoon proved to be quite interesting when we headed to Lake Memphremagog for smallmouth bass, again. The weather looked like it was going to take a turn for the worse and it did. We fished for about 2 hours and had to make a run for the boat ramp when the rain & wind picked up. Three footers were blowing from the N/NW making it a little uncomfortable for Dave as he had the worst seat seat in the house. The offshore structures definitely were a better choice as everyone landed bass from deeper water. Dan caught the first one about 5 pounds and many others followed, a little smaller in size. I wish we could have stayed there longer, but safety comes first! Mother nature won this battle, but it was still a great day!!
