What did you Catch Today?

I only fished the last hour or so. I had three rods going for youngest. He fished 3 hrs or so and had 3 buckets of keepers with 18+ let go. We had a family pool he won and my FILs wife missed boat pool by 1/2”. I ended up with some pretty close to biggest sea bass, a spikey skate that came in backwards, and a fat silver eel.
Hot as blazes, real feel was 104 or something. Thankfully, we were on the shady side. 8/10ths of the team disappeared as the morning wore on. I didn’t realize they all got boat sick
Heard the cabin was like a war hospital with people sprawled out.

A dad and son next to us were struggling so I hooked a few fish bites for them. They caught some keeper fluke and porgy. The dad was telling the kid he usually stops at the market after to bring home fish. The kid was determined to get a keeper

Yeah I wasn't allowed to eat, stand, or use my own gear. I showed'm though!

That lake is big enough to have sizable fish and small enough to memorize well. A lot of the best Basser's fish the upper lake after dark.

You have to find them out in the deep.
This has been my experience and expectations: In summer, in daylight I catch most bass on park Camping side and Pickerel on Mountain Side. Most perch are on the bottom in the deep end. The bigger Crappy are schooled only, so you must find the school. and undersized Gils are everywhere. Occasionally they are still catching holdover Walleye from when they used to stock them there and the Channel Cats can be large.

You guys are killing me with the blueberries. 
Instead of the banana it's blueberry.

Back chasing smallies today. I swore I was going to stay away but with some flows, I just had to know!
4 nicer ones on various baits. 3 smaller ones on an Ott Defoe Crankbait. Don’s recent thread about cranking got me thinking I still need to give the Ott an honest try. I was surprised I caught smaller fish with it though…I’d still rather throw a spinbait but I know susky guys love their cranks for a reason.
A few smaller ones on various presentations and of course a handful of sunnies as a byproduct of fishing neds.
