Day at Wolf Lake = Terrible
Thursday, August 11th, 2016 | Author: admin
In the past Wolf Lake has been great so even though I had a poor day there last year I had to go back and see if there was any improvement. There was more of the same, lots of gar. Also there were lots of minnows that looked like what my daddy called “potgut minnows”. I don’t see why a bass there would hit a artificial bait there were so many minnows. I was expecting a bad trip based on last year and when I reached the landing there were other bad signs. There was a lot of grass in the parking lot indicating not much traffic and there were no plastic bait remnants in the gravel indicating not many bass fishermen. I caught only one fish from 7 until 10 and had several other halfhearted bites. Most of the bites were when the bait landed right on the fish. I guess that’s called a reaction bite but the reactions were small. Not going back anytime soon. High points of the day were a three foot alligator that just came cruising by the boat and an osprey.
