Well, had the day off and The Nitro and Gene wanted to fish ,but we really did not want to put up with the crowds. We threw out a few lakes and figured they would all have boat traffic except maybe 2, Copper and Fairfield .Lets try something new….. We have never even been on Fairfield before but thought what the heck , it is either that or nothing. We arrived a little late not anticipating the longer drive but we did ok. Talked to Jackie and thank you sir for your help. If anybody wants to catch some reds give that man a call. He is very nice and helped us out bunches. We caught 3 legal reds, 1 rat red and a catfish. We did have a big red break off but lesson learned on that one. I have fished for reds on Tradinghouse lake but we trolled for them there. We used live bait and fished a way I have never fished before and it was a challenge to learn a new lake and all the things you are not accustom too. But it was a fun time we set out to catch reds on a lake never fished by us and we hit our goal. The water temp on that lake was insane,,,,, 96 degrees… Thanks again Jackie for the tips…
