Left bullfrog headed north to 2 mile. We went straight through, no detours. We decided we were only striper fishing this trip. Weather and wind were perfect for the whole trip.
We set up camp in 2 mile and started fishing around 2 pm. I like to troll, spoon if I get a chance and fish the boils if that’s possible.
We didn’t get out of camp 100 yards and doubled. All the fish this trip were 12 to 24 inches ( estimated) I did not weigh or measure any of them, all were in good shape.
Fish and bait balls everywhere. Only saw one short boil Friday afternoon. We filled 4 gallon ziplock bags and quit for the night. Saturday was a repeat of Friday. Fishing was phenomenal.
We ran into little Salt wash above the horn on Saturday and had a good visit. He was camping in the primitive campground with his wife. I think he ran all the way up just to visit,That was nice if he did. He was strictly bass and crappie fishing. Good to see him and say howdy. I don’t know how he did.
Sunday we were the only boat above 2 mile all day. We started out from camp and doubled twice within 300 yards of camp, hit a boil while doubled and soon had 4 fish on at once. If you’ve ever seen me in action you’ll understand the next statement. The Bejing China Fire Department texted me and wants Joe and I to come over and give them a demo
Best lures for us were rapala glass shad rap in purple. Trolled 4 to 4.5 mph.
Sunday there were boils all over the lake. Most were short, but we managed to get into 3 and catch fish. One boil in the mouth of 4 mile lasted 10 or 15 minutes. It’s just going to get better for a while. Water temps 66 to 70
