Waking up early is GREAT! We got an early start to the day by meeting at my place at 5:15AM. It's like the old saying "You Snoooze, You Lose!". The plan was to first look for some crappie and then hit the main lake for some giant whitefish and lakers. Well, the crappies didn't exactly work out. Enoch got one nice slab while Tony had a massive 2lb+ crappie lost at the boat - a classic rookie mistake by being too excited. We also got numerous rock bass and perch. We did however run into some NICE BONUS BASS! The highlight of the day was the double header 5lb Smallmouth Bass that Alfred and I both got - they we're MONSTERS!!! All bass were QUICKLY and SUCCESSFULLY RELEASED! Surface water temp was 63F.
The whitefish and lakers didn't work out either - the main lake was a bit too rough to be fishing out there so we had to stay close to shore. Better to be safe than sorry.
Though he claims to have out-fished his fishing mentor today, props goes to Alfred for improving his fishing skills by leaps and bounds. He now casts with authority and has the drive to wake up at 4am to go fishing or play softball. That's the dedication and passion I like to see - Welcome to the ACF club Al! Many thanks to "Net Man" - Enoch, and "Camera Man" - Tony.
And for the record, the "Ron Guarantee" was in effect and was successfully (and easily) met. It was a great day to be out - Thanks guys for the good times! =)
