Brookville Lake

[Denny_K]

I went to Brookville Lake yesterday.Got on the water at 1pm,I tried to talk my buddy JB into going but he was having some ink done..so I went over solo.I went to this cove down by the causeway,I started out throwing a Bomber Shad crankbait 8-12ft diver and switching back and forth with a
3/8 oz Chatter bait Chart w/white grub 4".I was throwing around logs and stick ups.Nothing intill I got around the corner and then I hooked up with what had to be a Striper cause I couldn't get this thing up and he was pulling drag.This all happened for about 5 seconds and he got off.Then I switched back to my Chatter bait.There is this nice lay down in the water with two stumps at the end the two stump are about 10 inches from the lay down and just below the surface of the water.I casted my bait beyond
my target and as i got closer I brought my bait between the stump and lay down and BOOM! I got a 3lb 3oz large mouth.I got a pic of it but i don't now how to post it on these websites..sorry,but the fish was awesome.Fished some more and didn't get anymore takers.moved down the lake to two more coves and nothing.Went to the upper north end and managed to get a striper on an Old Rebel shad bait I have had for years.It weighed about 1lb.And that was about it for the upper end.I went back to where I got the 3lb bass and started out tried other baits and nothing so I started throwing the Fluke (pearl blk on top) and got one on it weighed about 1.5 lb.And I headed to the ramp.I had a great time but it wasn't the same with out JB,He's ablast to fish with.
