Fished with Charlie Gabbeart and Jeff Cheetam on Sunday from 8am to about 3pm. Fished the mile roads, concentrated around 9 mile and the Ford mansion. I was only able to boat a big pike and a small muskie - shouldn't that be the other way around?
Charlie boated a small smallie on the ugliest crankbait ever - I lost a $20 bet that it couldn't catch a fish. Of course he never put it down after that.
Jeff threw his goby and bluegill painted cranks, then went to dropshot gobies had a great day. He had a crankbait pig and personal best of 6-2lb smallie. He boated another 4 keepers for what we estimated around 18-19 lb sack.
Fishing was very slow, picking up about every hour. We fished 6-9 FOW.
Great weather and nice flat day on the water.
Britt Higby was out there nearby and he told use he caught a couple smallies around 4lb each and 4 perch.
Ha...we were posting at the same time...It was a fun day for sure. We'll have to get out and do it again. I know Charlie called that crankbait color "parrot", but if we were salmon fishing, it would have had "puke" somewhere in its name.
I saw - it least folks will know we are honest, because they read the same!
You'll have to change your profile pic to the New personal best smallie.
Nice job and I'll send you an order for a couple of those cranks!
aaah no respect for the ol'guy..."small smallie??" that 2.5 smallmouth that fought much bigger then its size was a whole lot bigger then the bass T Bone caught, oh wait a minute thats right T Bone wasn't able to catch the type of fish we were actually fishing for. Once again proving that I'm a better guide then a fisherman as my guest for the 2nd and last time, out fished both the front of the boat and the back seater...nice going Jack.
