Lake X

Monday, May 13th, 2024 | Author:

I went to Lake X Saturday morning. Sunday would have been my preferred day but Saturday had to be it. A slight North wind that was not too strong but it was from the North. The major period was supposed to be right after noon and I really figured that would be when it would happen but I went early anyway. Nothing happened early but I tried anyway only to be shut out on any bites. The depth finder was on side scan because I was looking for anything that you couldn’t see figuring anything seen would have been fished hard and any fish there would have been educated. A whole log showed up but I did not mark it and I hunted for it with a Carolina rig. Found it and got a bite, set the hook and after a short fight was hung up. That log was in a deeper part of the lake so I started looking deeper. Getting closer to the period, I had another deeper bite on a chigger craw and had a powerful fish pick it up and make a blazing run pulling drag until the hook pulled out. The day was not going well. Next I tried a shallow spot where the fish will sometimes congregate to feed and actually caught one. Shortly after I caught a 4 pounder in a log pile after getting hung up and finally getting it out. By then the bite was pretty much over but I checked all the good spots with no results anyway. Nothing , so I headed home disappointed since I had let a good one get away.
