Catch[up] report

Two days ago wt 39.5,vis 6"/8" Usually that combo makes me nervous,but managed 4 lmb,coupla yellows and a bunch of pickerel.

Yesterday wt 42, really clear,very windy.The main action was in 3' to 4' depths,not the 8' available. The picks got stupid for jerks as did few bass.Things happen for a reason,I am convinced of that. On my final drift to the ramp,two teen girls ,15-ish decided to go for a ride in their kayaks. I asked them if they had life jackets on and they said no.I decided to fish longer and   be close enough to help if they got wet. All went  well with them back on land,so I headed to the ramp.I was jerkin when I got a vicious hit/miss. I  threw back as fast as I could and used a radical jerk. A beautiful 5 pounder smoked it. Thank you

Today wt 42,very clear.Picked off a 2-1/2 lb bass with jig on the fourth cast,but that was it for lmb.The picks however got really stupid  for 1/4 oz blk hair jigs,I`m thinkin maybe 20 of them.4 really fat yellows on jerks and jigs.I fished about 4 hrs in the SNOW. About an inch fell and I got really cold and wet. It snowed so hard a coupla times I couldn`t see the jig hit the water or watch the line. Had a real bad time loading the boat. Had to drag it up a bank[12footer] and over a guard rail.Took me 1-1/2 hrs  to warm up. Why do I do this,I don`t know for sure. No one else was out, imagine that Looks like a freeze in  for a few days. I need a break

BTW  3 different locations mentioned here.

Its  tough  to get pix in a 12' boat.  The snow blowing pic  was last Sunday 1/17.

The other pix came from where the yakers  came out.

I have a bass boat that stays parked most of the winter while I actually prefer to use the 12' er.
