my Boy wanted to get one more camping trip in befor school started..so we packed up the gear and hooked up the boat and away we went.. we got to joe's valley around 5:00 pm last night and got all the stuff loded into the boat and headed for the camp site(acrost the lake) got camp set up and was out fishing by 5:30..
we headed for the north side to make bait.. got the bait in about 30 min's we had 5 nice chuby's in the bucket and we were ready to find some splake.. will i wanted to go chase some big bad boy's but i knew that on a good day they are hard to find so i went to a spot on the north side not far from where we were fishing that have a good number of small splake so we went there.. from 6:00 to 8:30 we cought about 15 to 20 splake each.. small ones but fun all the same..
next morning he got me up at 6:00 am and said it's time to fish dad come on let's get with it!! he's a real trooper and a chip off the old block!! well we allready had bait from the night before so we headed out to find the splake..well did not take long to find them we went to the rockpile on the east side and found some more small ones.. after the sun started comeing up we we went over on the slope on the west side and found some nicer ones.. but nothing real big.. so we headed in for some chow.. well after chow we headed over to the the cliffs to see one last time if we could find some bigger fish.. still just smalleys tho.. then my boy desided he want to fish for chub again with my micro light pole with 2 lbs test line.. so i put a bubble on and a worm and cast it up close to the rocks.. after about 10 min's he said look dad a fish is trying to eat my bubble!! i looked over to see just that a fish trying to eat the bubble.. then it went down he grabed the pole and set the hook and the fight was on!!lol turned out to be about a 2 lbs cutt.. and man did he have the fight of a life time with that fish on that pole!! after about 5 trips around the boat and 25 min's later he finley got it to the net..after that we headed in for some lunch and some swim time for tommy as i packed up camp.. head out one last time but not for trout but bait to take home.. we headed again to the north end for some chuby fun.. fished for about 1 1/2 hrs and cought about 35 chuby's for the up comeing ice season.. then the big storm started up and it was time to go..
