I went to try things out in the boat for the first time this year. I added the down rigger and it was my intention to use it but my granddaughter spent the night so I took her with me instead of the down rigger. This was her first time out on the water in a boat, she just turned 4. I didn’t know how she would take to it. She was OK for the first 5 minutes then she wanted to go back home. But I told her we were going around the island again then we would go home. My granddaughter, Zoe, did just fine even though we fished for about an hour and a half total.
We trolled wedding rings with worms, nothing biting even though it has been planted. The fish finder said there were fish in various places. It was sunny but chilly, breezy but not too windy. I planned to bring my thermometer but I forgot. I also realized on the lake that I forgot to put my legal tabs on the trailer and bring my fishing license. We were the only ones on the lake.
