 |
|
Had a great day on Crystal Lake in the kayak early in the AM on 6/1. Got on the water around 5:15AM and it was perfectly calm and quite foggy! I fished until about 10:00 AM which is when the wind picked up.
Quite a few boats on the water by then too, but I can't blame them.
I caught 5 LMB's on the day, smallest being 1lbs 14oz and the largest being easily my personal best at 4lbs 10oz!  All were caught shallow and on a texas rigged senko.
Here are a few cell phone pics of the big one:
and
I'm having good luck at Crystal -- I just need to figure out how to fish the deeper water! |

Nicely done...
Do fish much on the rt140 side or by the bridge?
We caught a 14" by the bridge....I grew up in Ellington and never knew there were fish that big in there

I tend to fish all over, which is both a combination of being too impatient and not having a trolling motor (in the "big" boat or the kayak) and being controlled by the direction of the wind. That morning I spent more time over by 140 as I launched the kayak from there (by the beach) and didn't make it all the way across before I had to head out. |
