Hit lake Lake McDonough with Peco (Phil) Wensday rolled up on the gate about 5 min. before they cracked the lock 10 minutes later we where on the water for a gloriously beautiful day weather wise weatherman perdicted light 5mph breezes so of course there where dam near white caps on the south end of the lake. So we decided to start bye hitting some lay-downs north end of the lake Phil boated the first fish of the day 1.5 lb bass on a drop shot I was in such a rush to hit the water I left my camera in the truck luckly Phil had his and im sure there will be picks to follow . We never left the north end of the lake the biteing flies where tearing me up so we made a run to the boat house they where kind enough to share some bug spray with us got the rules cleared up on entering the grass flats where the no boats marker is and off we went. no idea the total number of fish boated but there was a pile of them (not many where mine) just couldnt set a hook to save my life but there where tons of bites we had red tail hawks , ospreys .and even a bald eagle to set the mood . Thanks to Phil for another GREAT DAY of fishin allways enjoy the company.

I'm hoping we get some shallow fish as lately its been all deep bites for us. Mostly on deep cranks at that. So what did they tell about the no motor boat bouy and the grass flats? I was told only if I paddle my 17 footer(ahh no)[/quote:aed9525a48] Behind the Island that beach with the no boats sign you can go through there if large motor is up on trolling motors. We caught a good amount of bass just wind drifting the large flats in about 9 feet of water almost every time we passed a weed line or deapth change there where hits. the no boats bouys are to keep ya 100 feet off the swim ropes just go through slow
