Got up early and took the boat out this am. Hasn’t seen the water since well before deer season opened so it was a nice change of pace. Wind semi-cooperated and so did some fish. Only caught a handful of smallmouth, biggest was 4.5lbs then went and beat up a couple dozen largemouth with the biggest around 3.5. Gotta get my shit together now and chase deer without antlers.
Too warm for me to mess with filling a couple more doe tags, and perfect wind to get out on Erie today. Had to bust through 1/4-1/2 mile of skim and chunk ice in the marina to get out on the lake. Biggest (picture) was a hair over 4lbs, all the others were sub 3.5lbs. Total around 20 fish? Not a bad day of soft water fishing considering it’s December 10th.
