Swimbait Wishing (2/14)

Jennings flips me off for the third time in a row!

Went for trout and knew that 90+ degree temps were not trout fishing.  Guy next to us got two legit trout, but the rest of the lake didn't appear to get any.
Switched it up and decided to throw the swimbaits for bass or to at least just chuck swimbaits.

Dave had the Lightning Trout bait I painted up for him and he was dying to try since they just stocked lightning trout in the lake last week.



We chucked a lot of baits for nada.  I actually got a few good swings and misses on fish, but could stick nothing.

It sure was a beautiful day out there, but my back had a rough time always having to bend and turn in such a little boat.



Dave was just looking for dock bass, but they seemed to be out on the spawn as there was only 1 bass we could find under the dock with the GoPro.




I made a little video of the day, but it unfortunately didn't involve actually catching fish.

Thanks for reading!
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

They should just quit stocking trout with this weather and go straight to catfish. It's night fishing weather.
