Prospertown Friday Afternoon

[Ol Pedro]

Picked up Grandson afterwork Friday and headed to Prospertown . The back launch is covered in growth so we tried to fish the channel edges with plastics . No Love in the back so we rowed up to the Main Ramp . Missed one on a motor oil plastic worm and that was it . We descided to fish Rapalas to the back . We spotted a group of five Deer on the East side of the lake back in a cove . Chris wanted to see how close we could get so we wet the oar locks and started to sneak up on them . The growth in the water was thick and we had to go slow . It took at least 20 minutes of rowing and freezing when they looked up but we managed to get within 20 yards before they caught our scent , snorted , stomped and bolted . There were 2 Does , one forked horn Buck , and two Fawns . One of the Does was a huge grey muzzle and seemed to be the boss . We pulled up on the bank to see what they were browsing . It looked like Blueberry bushes and waterplants . Everywhere you walked there were Deer turds and two good trails going back in the brush/trees . We headed back out of the cove and Chris gets a big Pickerel . I get a Nice Crappie off Rollercoaster point . We haul out with the Sun setting and the Moon up . Chris was so happy that we got so close and could watch the Deer interact . That made the trip for both of us .
