I had a tournament today with 62 boats showed up on scugog. I fished alone in this tournemant. It was sorta cool not to have to worry about someone in the back and telling them or having to help them with certain things...I could finally focus 110% on my fishing.
Especially after fishing that Ch!t hole that is sturgeon yesterday and only bringing 7lbs to take 3rd place....I was pretty much ready to lay a beating on those bass this morning.
The water was glass in the morning...The long run to my spot was pretty rough since I was one of the last boat to leave. I hadn't pre fish and the last time I was on that lake to fish was 3 years ago. I knew what worked 3 years ago wouldn't today simply because fish change and move and behave differently every year.
I had to spots....one was a deep rocky ledge on a point that I love fishing on windy days. and the second spot was an off shore structure that not a lot of people know about. I knew for sure that the fish or decent fish wouldn't be as close to shore. my first sport was dry and I knew it would fill up as soon as the wind came. So I went to my second location....flipping a structure that is 10x10 first flip....Catch a big hun!!! Land it...second flip I had a big thump...set the hook awkwardly because it was swimming toward me and lost it.....then right after I rerigged and landed another big momma...I was excited. You could of heard me miles away scream...! Fack ya!!!
I had a limite by 830....2 kickers and 3 dinks....I knew I need to upgrade those dinks to solid keepers. when the wind picked up I ran back to my first spot to see if I could catch a smallie or crusing largies....but I didn't so I return to my 2nd spot....to see if I could turn them on again...with little luck I cuddle a dink for a dink a few times. Now I was low on gas and couldn't make it anywhere else other then the ramp....I was bumped I couldn't go find bigger fish and was stuck to fish dead water for a while...
Non the less a great day!
Monday on scugog
