Muskalungee and I hit Black Hills after work today for about an hour. Water temp 51 degrees and the lake was fairly clear. Mike was there when I got there and was fishing a point where we know there is a deep channel nearby and is probably a staging point for the green bass as they head towards the bedding areas. I fished a tube (2 colors), my $15 Lucky Craft, and a white spinnerbait. The white spinnerbait yielded a chunky but sluggish 12 incher which turned out to be the only fish of the outing. Got the LC stuck on a big log and I had Mike wondering if I was going to wade out there and get the thing. I was glad I put that 2/100 Power Pro line on that setup when I winched the log and the bait about 30 feet through the grass to get it back. All in all another nice day.
I can't finish this without saying how great Muskalungee's guide service was. Putting me on the fish and then staying back to let me catch'em. :)
