May 20, 2009 ( Afternoon)
I had the chance to take out a fun group for an afternoon trip. These guys are great, Jeff called a couple weeks ago and said “ Leonard is ready to go fishing” I had Jeff, Leonard, Eric and Frank (Fred). I took these guys out twice last year. Now Leonard is one of my favorite guys, sorry no offence to any body else… He is the ZEBCO 33 king of white bass. He brings his own reels, a 3 of them and loves them. We fished from 3:30pm till 8:00pm. Found a few fish scattered then hit a good group in 10ft of water on a shallow hump .We fished a few spots and caught fish on everyone, one spot only yielded 2 fish but the rest were loaded. Slabs were the bait for the afternoon. We kept their limit and caught twice as many. The afternoon fish were bigger with multiple hybrid that in 1 week would be legal But Frank (Fred) did catch a 19 incher. I love fishing with these guys and it is always a hoot with them in the boat. All fish caught on SSS slabs, TNT 180’s and Leonard’s favorite old Rainbow slab in water 10ft to 29ft with East winds 5-10 and water temp was 74 degrees. Thanks again guys
