Another AWT
Had an early day of work for the Holiday so I hauled the canoe and gear to work with me. Got on the water at 5:15pm off at 8pm.
Brutal wind worked the back section of the pond this time out. Caught a perch on a j9 off the small island break-line. Got to the deep back corner and at the end of a frog cast,and I mean at the end,like no further than the end of my rod. I missed a huge explosion. It scared the crap out of me lol. Thought working the back end with the wind pushing there all day would help. But nothing doing. Had some issues controlling the canoe in the wind.
Hit my money spot but it may have been a little early in the season for it as it only yielded a keeper. Missed a hit off a marked hump. Then much like last trip out here I caught 2 quick little guys as I worked my way back into the cove. I tossed a buzzjet (the one I "caught") j9, ocho, chugbug frog and buzzbait. But in the end all the fish were caught on the spinnerbait. No big ones today had another blast right by the boat just at dark that I couldn't do anything with. All and all getting on the water on Labor Day can't ever be a bad thing.
