Big Lake 12-21-09
 

Went with Rich and Karl today. Greeted with cold air and calm winds. Started out in Turners but water was too muddy so we headed south. Water began to clear up about mid way. Not a sea gull to be found. Headed towards the weirs and hit the banks for some reds. Managed to get 10 then decided to try to find some trout. Went to 9 mile cut, water was very clear but no trout. Hopped across to west cove but found muddy water at the entrance. Fished there for a little while but no luck. Got back in the lake and tried the reefs to the north of the Old Jetties, not a bite so we went to the flats just south of Long Point. Beautiful water but no fish. Decided to head back to the east bank for some more reds but nothing. Headed North again to Turners on the way in and it was still muddy so we didn't try. Took it to the house with 10 Reds. Caught fish on tsunami swim bait, E-Paul secret weapon, gulp and gold spoon. What a gorgeous day, just wish we could have caught more fish. Had a good time with good friends.

nice report and good haul dem reds is tick yea!!

Cool pics and a nice report...Thanks for sharing..

them trout were slick today! lol

Looks like we have some more rain to deal with too.....reds will have to do for a while.:help:

need some more good strong south wind and less rain

Great catch men....

Seeing Spots.......did you check [taste] the water anywhere to see if it was salty?

Good to hear that there is some clear water.

Great report and nice catch.

Water is Fresh all the way to the jetties........ You want to catch Trout your going to have to go deep.........Real deep........between 8-15ft......... Bruce and I picked up some trout Sun....quite a few but it was slow fishing and in 8ft of water......
