Secret Word 10-27-12

Went out Saturday and got 6 all on Wacky Worm -- nothing big. Some fish were shallow with a lot of sunnies swimming/"running" for their lives. There were some big explosions. Water clarity has certainly improved, the fish were harder to fool. I did see a few larger fish but they were on to me!

I had a tough weekend as well. Hit tonka for a litte while Saturday and had one fish on a jig that got off and that was it. Was fishing in Carson bay and just did not like how clear that water was. Left and went to a smaller lake near by and got 5 fish while the guy with me did not catch anything. Biggest fish was around 18". Went out yesterday to a different small lake for a couple hours and got 6 or 7 fish. Right as I was about to leave I started throwing a jerkbait and got 3 fish in about 5-10 minutes. Biggest fish was around 18" again but lost one by the boat that was pushing 4lbs. Not great but I'll take it!

Fishing was slow for me too. Only made it out saturday because my usual fishing partner got sick and I hate fishing alone this time of year. Saturday I caught 10. Biggest was 20 1/2. Caught most of them on a -1 over milfoil. Was thinking I should throw a jerkbait but never did.

Fishing was pretty decent for me this weekend.

Made it out for a couple hours on saturday and only managed two fish, but they were good fish. Stuck a 4lb 9 oz and a 5 lb 8 oz. Both fish came out of some isolated deep thick coontail clumps.

Sunday afternoon we went to a different lake and beat em up pretty good. Ended up with 23.1 lbs for our big 5 fish, with the biggest one going 5 lb 6 oz. Found most of the fish just out off any remaining weeds and jigs/texas rigged creatures caught them. The key was slow movement of the bait, and even then we missed a lot of fish that were just grabbing at the back of the bait.

Glad some of you guys got out. Always kind of satisfying to eke out a few more fish before the curtain goes down. Kind of makes you feel like you're getting away with something by putting a few more in the boat.

Bacterial pneumonia pretty much put an end to my fishing season. Sat on the couch under a pile of blankets all weekend frown
