I waited to see if I wanted to go fishing in the morning until morning. So I didn’t set an alarm, hadn’t uncovered, or hooked up the boat. My gear was in the explorer all set to go. I woke up about 7 and was on the lake fishing by 9am. I finished around 10:30am. It had rained during the night but my deck was starting to dry up. The predicted wind and thunder showers had not arrived yet.
I brought a jacket but my insulated boots were keeping me warm and there wasn’t any rain, I only used it for a short time. The clouds were blowing overhead fairly fast as I set out my gear of Dick Nite Dodgers in Pick Splatter and Watermelon with Wannafish A Lure’s Bloody Mary and Pink Splatter Squiddy thing. There wasn’t any wind on the lake.
Got my first hit at 20 feet down but didn’t get it in. Set the gear out again, waiting for the next hit. It was a bit of time before I had another on and in the boat. It came on the Watermelon dodger and Pink Splatter Squiddy at 22 feet. I dropped the stacker down 10 feet more to see if I could get another and nothing happened so I took off Bloody Mary and put another Pink Splatter Squiddy on the Pink Splatter dodger. Dropped them down and got one at 22 feet again. Dropped down the stacker and got another at 21 feet. Then I realized that I was only getting them at the one level so I started just fishing one rod between 21-26 feet. It took about 45 minutes to get the last 2 fish. The wind did come up and it made it a little hard to maneuver. I fished most of the time on the west end trolling north and south. I ventured out toward the middle for a short time. Finally got my last fish who managed to tangle everything up so I was glad it was done. The biggest koke was just under 12 inches.
I came home to no internet, no cable, and no phone. But I had electricity and hot water.
And my local library had internet service.

Hi Toni- I had one foot heading towards the boat and the other one heading to my daughter's house to play with the grandkids. I had fun with the kids. I thought for sure the weather was going to turn for the worse this morning. Good to hear your on the water having fun. Nice fish.
