If it weren't for two nice rainbows spitting my single barbless hook this would have been a 4 or 5 star day. But that's part of the deal at Medical. Only landed and released one, but it was a fatty. I missed a couple other bites. I used Daredevil and Kastmaster spoons. Saw a pontoon, float tube, and some guys in a drift boat. I might have to bring out my new kayak for the next trip.

I should add that there was a styrofoam worm container sitting on one of the rocks in the parking lot, and I saw evidence of powerbait near the water also.

im just gonna point something out here....

medical lake is a lake with no motors. that means lots of float tubes and boats of varying degrees of manueverabilty. while its not a law, if a guy is drifiting with the wind in a float tube, and u paddle ur kayak to a spot 30 feet downwind of him and basically cut off his fishing drift, ur an asshole.

the next time i encounter this behavior i will simply start backcasting at ur head (this is not directed to the initial poster just in gerneral). MOVE IN UPWIND OF PEOPLE WIND DRIFITNG.

to the kid in the kayak with no PFD who did this to me, you know who you are. jackass. i ended up leaving the lake and moving to a new spot because this kayaker was cockblocked me for about 20 min straight.

Preachin' to the choir here. I grew up bass fishing, so while not the same exact scenario there was always that code that you don't big motor into a spot that another guy is obviously fishing his way into. But, there's always one A-hole that does it anyway and couldn't care less.

As a new kayak fisherman I'll definitely remember not to be an idiot and pull that move. 30ft seems super close under any circumstance, but have to factor in the wind and drifting for sure.
