I hope you catch a bunch.  Catch some for me.  I had planned to go this morning and look for some specs and eyes but I got a call last night and my backhoe/track loader guy said he would be at my farm this morning to build me a new road around the erosion caused by that 8" rain last month.

I can't see turning him loose without someone telling him where and what so I have to put off wetting a line.  With snow and colder temps coming I'm not sure when I'll be able to get out.

Well we started at Mill Creek at 8:30 this morning. It was 23 degrees with a small breeze. We fished until 5:25 pm and then called it in. It was about 35 degrees by then. we had a 20 minute boat ride at 45 mph to make it back in the black.  16 bass total. One spoon fish, 15 jerkbait fish in 46 degree water. 7 were keepers. The best 5 would go about 14.5lbs. 10 spots, 4 blacks, 2 smallies.










Give it another try tomorrow.

Fished again on the 30th with approximately slightly less results. We fished a different part of the lake. I think the fish were on the bottom and weren't very interested in coming up for the bait. My partner took advantage and put on a school. He had 7 keepers and 3 shorts while I only had 1 of each. 4 of his fish came on a brown jig or a chartreuse slab knocker. That big Lowrance unit on the front of his deck shows ALL the fish.  The sky was leaking all day and not a whole lot of fun. Headed back to toto land today. Hope I can get back down here again soon.  Jigman if ya read this I'll probably give ya a call in a couple of hours once I hit the road. Are you on Stockton today?

Happy New Years to everyone!
