Yote, I was going to give ya a call Saturday but I lost your number and it was kind of a last minute thing when I seen the pheasant hunters were behaving...
I don't dare say where over the forum it seems everytime I do the hoards roll in and ruin the spot by fishing there everyday and I never get to fish it any more because someone is always there... Kind of like your spot, that used to be good and fun, but so many people fish it all the time now, its really gone down hill. Too bad but somepeople don't know moderation and they fish the guts out of a good spot. Plus last time I said anything about location it resulted in a boat fishing off this spot about everyday for the last month so I don't think I want to ruin this one...
Anyway I was using a yellow salt & pepper grub 3" this trip, and I think I caught one on a different one, but I don't remember which one... I fish about 6 different colors, in fact I need to find that white one you were using last time... I like the look of that one. The cat took the jig this time, that's the first cat I've caught on plastic up here so I was glad to see that. I wish I could get them to hit a lure trolled like they do at Willard, but so far no luck trying that. (I did troll for half an hour but probably was making the goose hunters mad being out in the middle so I moved on..)
I sure can't find the crappie in any numbers this fall, guess we'll have to trade crappie secrets for walleye... It sure has been a nice fall, I hope we'll get another trip or two in but I think Rod is right winter is coming back this weekend... Catch ya again soon... J
