high rock lake 8-27-06

zooker · 08-27-06, 12:07 PM

water temp 85.4 water was more or less clear..light winds very little cloud over..

dang but i like it when a plan comes togather.. as i told good old "whats his name"

last night i heard tell of a struture specific crankbait bite on the old mud hole..

every fish was shallow under 5 feet of water -mostly 2-4 feet- i was using a 2 fisted approach the this struture specific bite. a norman lil n and a deep lil n. the lil n in fire tiger, the deep lil n in blue back chartuses. the fire tiger and the blue back color seemed to work equally well boating 14 fish each. 4 dinks 3 were 13.5+/- inches. most were solid keepers big went round 5 pounds-i did not weigh him- the fish were not bashful about nailing the crank they hit like a truck -even the short fish..

if ya aint noticed i do not show back gound in my photo's for a reason..

Good job man, sounds like fun. Is that reason because people would fish there?

I have a farm pond, where the land owner only lets me and my dad fish, and that place is a honey hole! Since there are tons of silos around here, I just take pics with a silo in the background, and everyones stumped.
