1/1/17 Out of Oak Grove

[tblspoon]

Found bait, but, they started going deep at daylight. Between sloppy throws and quick fish, had to chase birds.

Found birds in the first turn, north of bridge. Many birds covering large area with occasional water diving. Set out a spoon and a fluke, like they were bait, on down lines at 40'. Tried to jig bucktails when I marked fish.

Got a taker on the spoon. Tried to reel the other two in while fighting fish. Netted the 27"er with the other two lines hardware all tied into one.

Retied all three and went to look for birds at Indian Pointe. No birds, but, tailed someone in a center console in anticipation of bait secrets. They spotted me and acted like they were fishing.

Back to s-turns. Met TrollerDenDen.

Went to Becky's then back to the north side of bridge.

Met JT. He gave me a heaping scoop of ales. THANK YOU.

Tried the fish in s-turns again.

Went home.

Peace out.....

You are welcome! I didn't catch anything up River so I went back down to the cabin area at State Park and of course, 20 incher at the end of the day! Go figure

Congrats on a fish in the boat! Thanks for the report.
