Shocked at Lake X
Thursday, October 05th, 2023 | Author: admin
They shocked Lake X Friday for a fish census and I went yesterday. I’m using that for an excuse for catching only one (5-1) on the only real bite I got except for the catfish. Caught 3 of those on plastic . Also saw and dipped up a bass in distress swimming in circles. The 5 1/2 pound fish looked fine fat and healthy with no wounds and had not been hooked deep. I put it back and did not see it when I left but recovery was doubtful. As I was loading the boat a mature bald eagle flew by and lit in a tree next to the pond. It may have been looking for stragglers. Don’t think it could have picked up that fish out of the water but I would have liked to see it try.
