PreSpawn Bassin'

[NJSquatch]

Decided to give the panfish and trout a rest on Saturday and see what the green carp were up to. Hit up a shallow water lake to find the water temps at 62

It was game on with the chunksters hitting all the traditional moving baits. Square bill, spinner bait, chatterbait, and stick bait.

Finished up with 5 fish to 3.5#. All the fish were healthy and super chunky. Had a 15" weigh 2.25#. They are feeding up well for the spawn.

Also missed a muskie. I couldn't move it off the shoreline and it thrashed like a mad man until the little squarebills hooks pulled.

The weekend before I was the 74th boat to launch from Lee's and that was at noon!
There were 2 bass tournaments going on. Not sure why those guys drive all over the lake and get in everyone's way when all the bass are right in Van Every Cove.

Ha! People do some stupid sh*t when money is on the line. I much rather just enjoy catching and releasing. When your hobby starts to turn into a work scenario you are doing something wrong.
