Fishing Report
Another weekend up at the cabin…….. . I woke up early on Saturday like I always do. I decided to get a few casts in off the dock while John slept in. I used a yellow jig with a red dot on it with a carolina rig (two sinkers a foot up from the jig and a bobber a foot up from that. Is that a carolina rig or a texas fishing rig????? Help me out if you know) Anyways I had bought some worms opening weekend so I thought I would give them a try. Well I ended up catching about ten keeper bluegills by the time John got his lazy ass up
It was mid sixties overcast and breezy. The water temp is now up to 60F on chain lake finally!!!!!!! We cuised through the channel of McCann to Island and threw a few casts. No luck. We decided to try the bay on McCann where I caught the 16 incher last week. No luck. Not even a bite. We moved on to Clear lake and fished the shoreline a bit. I caught another nine bluegills and John got one. So it was a panfish day
Around six we decided that we have had enough beer and bluegill to head back to the cabin to clean our catch. Sunday we threw a few casts off the dock. John said that I must have caught all the bluegill yesterday cause there were no keepers left! We decided to try some bass fishing along the shore. John rigged up a powerworm and I tried my double minnow rig. John had a few bites and missed them all. He told me that he must have forgotten how to bass fish. He kept trying and finally got a nice 14 1/2″ largemouth. His first keeper of the season. I kept panfishing and ended up with five keeper bluegill. The weather was a bit chillier on Sunday with low sixties and mostly cloudy skies. The bite seemed a whole lot better Saturday for sure.
