Saturday's Report for Menomin:
Wow! What a tough day! First of, what a shitty ass day to go out! raining, Cold, Windy!!! Talk about a miserable day!
Got to the lake at 7:00am sharp. Enosey was just putting in and Dan showed up right behind us. This lake is tough! Talk about no kind of grass. I couldn't find any kind of Grass! Found some areas with Cabbage. No Docks whatsoever. Some parts of the lake it was shoreline then a 5 - 6 foot drop with mud or it was shoreline then 1ft of water for like 300 yards with no kind of vegitation just mud. This lake reminds me of Pelican in Albertville minus the big fish. Shallow and then more shallow.
We caught about 15 total fish. with 4 of those being keepers (14inch minimum) and one being a 3lber. No pattern found. All junk fishing. We basically threw everything including the kitchen sink at em! Caught a lot of short fish and a few pikes. The lake is going to fish smaller than it already is. I think guys will be fishing over each other and after each other. The areas I think hold fish will be loaded up with boats. We basically idled around the lake for a long time just getting a feel for the lake so I know where I can run and I know where I can't. Also went up river and hit a stump. Point came out of nowhere. Luckily we were just idleing. Also got stuck up the river in a backwater area. It went from 3 ft to 6inches. Imaging 2 fat guys rocking the boat with the trolling motor pulled up as high as it could to just barely catch water and then having to get out anyways to push. LOL
If weather stays like its supposed to this week. My predictions for winning weight will be 16.5lbs. It will come down to who has that 1 or 2 kicker fish.
We found 2 areas that we will fish hard for Pre and post spawn bass but I am sure others will be fishing these areas too.
I would tell you what we caught em with but I actually think the baits we used will work again this Saturday so I can't. LOL
I really wish i could take a day off and go again this week but I can't so come saturday I'm sure everything will ahve changed.
