another windy weekend on the cong

i went to the lake saturday nite and found the bunker dunker on his bucket fishin for eyes,so i joined in and tried my luck as well only to get skunked. the wind was a blowin pretty good and it was kind of cold. went back on sunday olny to find the same conditions so out in my canoe i go white caps and all. fished the henderson bay and around raccoon island.i caught 12 crappies 4 slime darts 1 16" lmb 3 perch a bunch of stink pans and one roach. rufus jr 3 feet under bobber and 1/4 0z gulp minnow jig were the preferred baits of day. the biggest slime dart was 19" and crappie was 14"

Nice you braved the gusty winds today and slammed 'em congrats!

At least you can get some wind protection from the island, sounds like a nice mixed bag!

Terrible weather. If I knew it was going to be this windy and cold, I would have gone tackle-shopping instead of fishing.
I had low expectations for Sunday due to the cold front, but the fish were actually active. Go figure.

yea the fish were hitting but i did not catch anything deeper then 6 to 8 ft.had a hard time with the wind in henderson bay,so i fished the ferry end of the island. the wind was rippin thru there really good too. as the day went went on things slowed down.the fish were not as active.i left at 12:30.
