Fishwhisperer Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Went to a small and shallow lake last night. I didn't have any expectations for the evening. I caught 2 gills out of the first hole. Drilled a second hole where I caught 2 more gills before catching a Spec on the drop. Raised my jig up to 5-6 feet and continued to catch more and released all of the gills. I only wish I had more day light. At 5:45 they shut right off. After a half an hour of fishing I kept 10 nice Specs ranging from 9-11 inches.Went back out again tonight. Spent to much time trying to find yesterdays spot. With the fresh snow, I couldn't find it. Managed 1 gill and lost 3 Specs at the hole. It was nice knowing that I was the only one fishing this lake for the past two days.A green and yellow glow with gold flake back, tipped with wax worms is what worked for me.

Fishwhisperer Posted January 9, 2009 Author Posted January 9, 2009 Went back tonight. Couldn't keep the gills off. Kept 8 of them. Never found the Crappie. Did catch two Golden Shiners. Lost my Crappie jig too.
