Late May On Erie

Well Speedbead shamed me into getting out there and doing a little fishing. Actually I was scouting some areas for my next outing. Tried one of  my old areas & found nothing. Decided to make a long run as the wind was offshore SSW. Set out a dead stick with a staysee while I worked a high bait that I was holding. Got bit on the worked bait & the first fish was a 4.75 lber. The lake went flat & the bite started. Ended up with 4 over four lbs, 2 over 5lbs & a 6-1lber. Best five went 25lbs-14 oz. The wind switched to the east & shut the bite down about 3pm. Water surface temps went from 51 degrees to 59 degrees while I was out.

Nice job Dwight - looks like me and the boys must have been holding you back.

 

As soon as you dumped the dead weight - You're Bagging Bronze.  

 

No Jambalaya for you.

25-14 huh?  Why are you doing so poorly? 

 

Geez, If that doesn't make us mere mortals feel bad, I don't know what would.  Yesterday my 5 fish would have been 15-7. And in a smallie tournament I would have had 0lbs.

 

Keep it up!  BTW- what was the main jerkbait of the day?

 

Jeff

Those are magnificent smallmouth.

What does it take to get a smile?

 

A big seven or eight. Or that first DD on lake baccarac.

 The weather you're sporting in those most excellent photos, is what I was looking to be blessed with during my extended stay.
