We were leaving the ramp around 2 pm and Jeff pulls in to leave. Said there was a little schooling action down by the dam, but otherwise really slow. As Mel and I got the boat in the water... Opy pulls in. Same story. A little schooling.
Just before BSA Island they were schooling... Lots of casts, no fish. We moved to around Kemoo Island more scattered schooling, but short duration and out of casting distance. They were breaking by Blue Boat Pt. so I hooked on a live bait and headed over. More schooling and Mel hooks a 2 1/4 pound peacock.

We started catching fish on live bait at the point. Mostly Peacock bass in the 2 to 2 1/4 pound size.

And this...

As more people arrived and started fishing, the action heated up.
Seems like the more people that are fishing, the more active the fish become.


Didn't even net the first fish and already there was another fish on.

Grand father and grand daughter... a trip they will always remember.
