got in the lake ( ~80 yr old) about 11:00 and things were kinda slow
the right shore has very steep banks going into 10-12 ft water within 15 feet of shore. I got most of the gills near the waterline on that side in less that 2’ of water.
I got a few small bass on WB’s and the Gills were on WB’s also ( with a little flash)… one gill in 8’ by movin really slow on the retrieve. Most were very subtle takes.
that tray on the yak that most of the fish are in is 8 in. long.
had one good bass on a worm:
something got another worm and broke the line, felt like it might have been a big turtle, line looked cut rather than broken,
There were some swirls in the shallows (1-3’) so I had to try a popper dropper----- got jr. gill on the ptn dropper.
I really like the Yak experience, sorry no one around to get a good pic of the Yak.
Nice pics druid. You cannot beat getting out on yak and fishing for gills. What yak do you have. I fish a Tarpon 100 and you could not ask for a better boat.
I was out for a bit on Saturday and got about 3 decent crappie and 7-8 gills. All were very sluggish and the bite was light.
I have a Mainstream:Kingfish. I have had it out about 4 times and love it. I am impressed with how stable they are.
J Castwell:
I really like the warm water info here and appreciate the contribution of all involved. I was worried that the pic might use up too much space, but I’ve been yelled at by professionals so i decided to risk it. The stuff by Rick Z and J Hyde in Warm water and Panfish is gold to me.
If all of us posted a little more how to , what with, when, and fishing techs I think we’d all benefit.
