Lincoln Beach report 4/13/19 - catchinon - 04-15-2019
I went back to Lincoln on Saturday afternoon and fished the channel. It was warm enough to fish in my t-shirt. It was too hot on my head and I had to go back to the pickup to get my ball cap. Several cars came and went and a few people were fishing. I didn't see any catching. There were a couple of boat trailers in the parking lot and a few boats came and went while I was there.
I used cut carp meat and a shrimp/worm combo. Not much happening. I kept adjusting for depth and sometimes stayed stuck on the bottom and other times let my bobber drift with the slight wind. I was watching the bobbers and then looking around, do-dee-doo, when I looked back and couldn't see one of the bobbers. I started reeling in the fish and about halfway there the line went slack. I kept reeling and the bobber stayed under the water. When I got it near the bank the fish started fighting and I thought I had a small channel on but when I got it where I could see it it was a bullhead. I tried to lift it up by the line but it shook free and I didn't have to deal with getting the hook out and being slimed. That was my one fish so I didn't get skunked and it was nice to feel something wiggly on the end of my line again. The worm was gone but the shrimp remained. How do they do that?
A pleasant trip. I got to pick up some garbage and improved my "seat". I got my set-up sorted out better than on the day before. Now I just need to figure out how to set up an umbrella and rod holder there. I'm looking forward to the end of this week when we can get a few days past this storm.

Jim is getting back sooner than I thought; I'll have to get out there and talk to him. The plans for the Flotilla are going along well. I just want to coordinate with him.
