I just changed the name of this post because it had become a spam magnet for some reason 09/30/09. Today on Lake Ferguson, 23.7 feet, I started just where I left off the other day, not doing very well. The old stuff wasn’t working so I thought I’d try something new. Tried a lot of new places. Stripes everywhere. Silver carp were everywhere too. Snagged one with my DT-6 up near it’s head.  When snagged near the head they do not fight very well for their size so I got my bait back. Finally I caught a nice bass, 5 1/2 pounds on a DT-10. About 2 casts later I snagged a carp that blazed drag and then broke my line. I decided to put on one of my “found” baits a Poe’s crankbait.  Then the DT-10 came floating up. Since I had felt no more carp, I put it back on. Two more casts and it was gone again courtesy of a carp. The Poe’s stayed on for the rest of the day although the DT-10 came floating by about 15 minutes later.  I had a 2 3/4 pounder coming to the boat and behind it were two bigger fish, 3 1/2 and 4 my guess. While I had the rod with the bass on in one hand , I picked up the rod with the DT-6 on and was doodlesocking trying to catch one of the other fish. It didn’t work, but I bet it was hilarious to watch .Caught 17 bass in all.  The FOD was the first one caught @ 5 1/2 There was one other 5 , two 4s, and a 3-13, a 3-8, and a 3-0. Except for about 5 dinks the rest were 2 1/2 to 2 3/4. Top 5 fish weighed 22-6.  All from an innocuous looking spot. I tried several others that looked the same but nobody home.  A very good day on Lake Ferguson. Now if I can just find a few more spots like that.
