Pre-Fishing Chisago

Spent 4 hours taking my first look at Chisago Lake. Caught some nice fish. Found some good spots. Scum frogs, Senkos, texas rigged worms, and spinner baits, it doesn't get any better.

Think fish,

June 20th Prior Lake

Our club finally had a nice summer day to fish. Unfortunately, a nice day to fish isn't always the best day to catch, unless you like 10 inch fish. From one end of the lake to the other, on everything I threw, I caught fish. About 50, 10 inchers. Of the two I weighed in, I killed one on the hook set. Atleast I didn't kill my big fish, the 12.5 incher. The lesson learned was not to skip prefishing on a lake I've fished in the past. I spent a lot of time relearning the lake.

June 6th on Independence Lake

Cold, windy and wet. I had a blast. The bass made me work. Caught 7 keepers and came in third again. They came on Senkos, tubes, and jigs. I love to go toe to toe with bass in the slop. I was able to work a short stretch of weeds all day.

That's all for now,
John
