With all the happenings going on this weekend, I decided to spend some time down my end of the lake. We launched out of Hamilton, a nice change. We fished East of 50pt, towards Forans.
I tried deeper water first, but didn't find much to my likings, so I came in tight to the "green zone". Weather was gorgeous. Cold and grey in the morning until the sun came out, which brought beautiful blue skies and warm(er) temps.
Our best baits were the jointed long A bomber and jointed challenger minnow, both in a gold pattern.
Long lines and boards did the trick, fooling both kings and browns. Early in the morning the kings were active. As the day progressed, and the sun warmed that green water, the browns really became active. Nothing too big, but beautiful none the less. The cold water and shallow depths are causing the kings to spend some time displaying their acrobatic skills. Tons of fun watching a mean king launch out of 8' of water, 30' from shore.
Water temps still below 50 degrees, and the crowds were minimal in tight. Nice seeing Shane Thombs kicking butt along the shoreline as well.
Here's some of my favourite pics taken.
