After the good day last week, this week was a let down. Got out there around 7 am and picked up some trinkets from TubeDude, thanks Pat, before we launched. Water temp at launch was 46 degrees, warming up to 48 by the time we got off the water around 1:30 pm. We got a few perch type bites, right after we got out of the North marina but no hookups. We moved around for a few hours before we had our first hookup and that turn out to be a foul hooked carp. Second fish was a 23" cat and our last fish of the day was a nice perch but that was it or the day. A lot less shad our there today but we saw no dead ones. Now that the water temps have finally started to drop, I'm hoping it won't be long before the catching will improve but you never know, it's been a strange Fall.
