Schooling in the Rain

Postby Stan Wright » Fri Nov 26, 2010 7:08 pm

Worked the shoreline from BSA island all the way to Blue Boat Pt....
Flys, Senkos, and dragging live bait... NOTHING.

Spoke with several other fishermen who were catching a few nice peacock bass on live bait... Very few. But they told me they saw way more fish that just swam by their bait without even a second glance. Slow fishing.

The schooling fish were to hard to ignore. Water temperature was 73 to 74 degrees in the Main Basin. We only caught largemouth, no peacock bass. And not even the schooling fish would take live bait.

I was teaching Haley how to cast a spinning rod. I had some 4 inch white Senkos so she would have some weight to throw. She wasn't really fishing, she was "practicing". Just cast it out and reel it straight in... In the next hour, she caught 4 largemouth.
Good teacher I guess. :roll:
(Uncle caught 1, Dad caught 1, and Grand Pa Stan didn't catch anything)

It was fun to get out in the rain and be a kid again.
