Anglerā€™s Paradise was not spared by the giant rains that hung over the Midwest last week. We received ~ 8ā€¯ of rain in a 48 hr period. The lake rose 24ā€¯ and the water turned from 5ā€™ of visibility to coffee. The south winds that had driven the Gulf moisture our way reversed to the north just in time for my guided trip on Friday. Our fishermen arrived Thursday night in spite of my dire predictions for the fishing on Friday. We hit the water at 8:30 am in a slight drizzle. We struck out at both waterfalls and my expectations were at an all time low. Fortunately my visitors had enough optimism to go around and dutifully ground it out with the 3ā€¯ smoke grubs that you have to master in these conditions at AP.
Before the day ended my three fishermen boated 14 bass, 12 on the grub. No picture fish, but a couple of solid 15 inchers and one fish that doubled up the rod on the jig & flippin blue super chunk that has produced a lot of big fish this year. Never got a look at him, but it was on the north bank of Burnt Tractor Cove, a place where many of the bass are as big as your imagination.
Two brothers and their dad spending some quality time together at a secluded lake and cabin. Fish were optional, but welcome. A big thanks to the Calvert men for giving it a go!
