Had to dodge the storms today, but was able to get in on some quality fishing in between the storms. With the overcast and wind, fish came up shallow on a small island point. We caught nice keeper sized fish today and didn’t have any slots, however I know I had one slot on today that came unbuttoned.
Fish on the small island point were as shallow as 7ft and as deep as 13ft. They were aggressive and all 3 approaches used today worked…rigging with leech, jig/crawler, and crawler harnesses.
My dad and I were really putting the wood to them when people in an $85,000 Lund glass boat slid right in on us and onto the point we were fishing. The guy hit his spotlock and anchored his boat right in the way of our drift/troll path. What a POS. $85,000 boat can’t find the fish so let’s have somebody find them for us. I simply cannot comprehend sliding in on another boat when there are some 50,000+ other spots that could be fished!!! And don’t anybody give me the “you don’t own the lake” or “you don’t own that spot” garbage because those are “yeah no crap” phrases. It’s not about “owning” anything… its about common courtesy and being a decent human being, which the idiots in the $85k Lund boat most certainly are not. Even worse they had a young kid in there which teaches him everything that is wrong. What a shame.
So, with that rant done and over with, it was, overall, a good day of fishing. Tomorrow morning will be my final fishing outing, then its tubing & water fun for the kids in the afternoon.
