It was another beautiful day out on the water. Dink fest day. I think the biggest fish today was MAYBE 1#.
Started shallow with a jerkbait. New jerkbait rod btw. Seems nice against the dinks. ...

Most active areas for me was outside wee...

Doppler looked good enough and got on the water by 10:30AM. ...

Well for a tough day it ended well. I caught a 4 lb small mouth at north end right at the drop off. For me it was a big small mouth. Fight was great. Well worth the wait. Used drop shot with plastic w...

"Caught" is the wrong term for the rating today. I hooked onto a lot of fish today. I lost more than landed fish. This must have been my worst landing ratio ever.
Started the day off on the oppo...

Much slower start today compared to the last 2 outings. I think with the partly sunny skies, the fish werent roaming as much and holding tighter to cover. Staying with the jerkbait, I didnt hookup ...

Beautiful day out on the water. Decided to start off with topwater because why not. After 20 mins without a bite, started using dropshot and swimbait. A very slow start. Saw little fries holding n...

Been a few weeks since my last outing. Started off kind of rough with a noob mistake. I left my transom straps on when I was backing up the boat. I was wondering why I had to be so far in the water...

Stopped off at Farthole and caught a few of dinks, then this beat up 2#...

Tough bassing. Rotated between a jerkbait, senko, swimbait, crankbait and dropshot.
I caught a bunch of perch. 2 trouts on the jerkbait. That's never happened before.
Only 1 SMB on a dropshot. ...

Wind was a little bit less than yesterday. Wanted to fish the other side of the lake today. Instead of going with the wind though, I went against it. Manageable.
Started off with jerkbait. 3rd...

Saw the lake was opening Oct. 1 for Coho and since Lake WA had a decent run early on, I thought maybe it Sammy would be good too. I got off work early to go check it out. Launched out of the state p...
