Hire Dustin and Justin. Booked a month in advance and had to fish that specific day, water is up 15+, a little off-color, and the fish are scattered. Rough fishing reports from all the marinas. Brought my fishing felon, 12 yr old that holds his own.
Rolled out at 6:30 like a bottle rocket aimed at your buddy, a little 70mph to the main vein. First spot showed a little life with a respectable smally (target fish) and some spots. Moved on to a dock holding buku basses. Started flipping, pitching, casting, and (new skill unlocked) slingshotting all the spotties from cover.
On to a point that was holding spots like a redhead. Whacked em at 20’ over the point.
Then to a single standing timber that was lit up like the Griswalds at Christmas. Cast past, count to 10 and rake in the goodies at 25-30’.
Another dynamite spot? No way. Yes way. Hit a bridge piling and caught green hyenas at will.
My son learned all about the lake, the lures, the electronics and the fish. We had an absolute blast when all the reports were ugly.
60+ bass. Forgot to mention my largemouth.
Dustin and Justin are the real deal.
Thanks fellas, made some good memories yesterday.
