9-1-2012 Last trip to McD
Message:
Our last trip to McD before it closes for the season was a hit! We caught loads of fish both in deep water and on the shallow grass flat. Water temps were still in the high 70's. Wind was mild all day. Water is clearing up and we saw bottom in 8 ft of water. Started the day throwing worms in the shallow areas around the channels, But only caught some little ones. Mostly rock bass. Headed into the grass flats we stayed in the deeper area's with cranks and spinner baits. Boated some decent LMB-SMB and Pickerels. Moved to the back where we had some good luck in the spring. Only managed some more Pickerels and a rock bass. My son caught a monster gill on a shallow crank, But wouldn't let me take his picture with it!

Best fish was my son's(yet again! :oops: ) near 3 pounder(2.87) that came from 18 FOW.

So we hugged the dropoffs and managed a couple here and there.

I even got a decent perch to wack one. Along with some pickerel to finish the day.

We had action pretty much all day. But the evening bite was the most exciting. Headed for home at around 6:30 as we were out of water and gettin very hungry. Great way to finish a very good season at McD. Look out Winchester/West Hill/Twin! Here we come! :D
