7/23/11 - Big Lake Night Trip

[ckinchen]

As usual the wind picked once the sun went down (that has been the pattern all summer) except this time it kept getting worse. By the time we stopped fishing at 1:30, the wind was blowing 22knots and it was steady 18 or more from 9:00 on.

We fished several spots with both plastic and live bait and ended with 8 flounder and 10 trout. It was our slowest night trip so far but that happens when you can't find clean water. We had a couple of other boats fishing with us that also had lights, they caught fewer fish than we did. Oh well, that will make the next blockbuster trip that much more fun.

No pictures, I haven't been downstairs to the boat shed this morning yet to clean the fish.
