Deer and Bass

This morning I went for a quick bowhunt, and after it warmed up, went for a short fishing trip to the private hole. I started fishing at 11:15 and quit at 1:45. In that time the bite switch went from on to off.  At the start, the fish were doing pretty well, as 12 came from one spot pretty quickly.  As has been the case for the most of the year a DT-6 did most of the catching. A worm, a Yozuri, and a Timber Tiger DC-13 all helped a little.  Toward the end of the trip, the fish had completely vacated what I consider to be one of the best spots. On the way back to the boat launch I saw some shad “flicking” out in the open water and just fired the DT-6 out in their direction and caught one.  Figuring I had solved the riddle, I started to cast to every “flick”. It didn’t work again so when I reached the launch, I quit.  Caught 20 in all with a FOD of 3-3.  I let the largest fish of the day jump and put the scold on me, throwing the DT-6 all the way back over the boat.  It weighed in the 3 3/4 to 4 1/4 pound area is my guess. Only one grinner today but he was well sedated when I saw him last.
