Woah! Look at these fellows!

It's amazing how CP can turn you around. At 9 am I was sputtering and angry, ripping snagged hooks from tree branches only to watch them fly into the deeper and more impenetrable brush behind me (the Double Snag!). It was humid yet cloudy, the wind was gusting and I was without fish one.

It had seemed like it was going to be a good morning. I arrived at the lake closer to 8:30 and went straight to the laydown on the lake's western shore. Nothing but snags and tangles. In fact, I had no luck at all until I arrived in the Ramble an hour later. There I caught the three fish shown and lost a fourth. What a great day! All the fish were respectable, all came on 3" black fat senkos plopped right on their noses. The algae was thick and soupy but my usual technique of pulling the worm along the surface was not working. I had to plop it right in.

70 degrees, cloudy. Cobretty w tdx 2506. No fish on golden crankbait.
