Eagleville Lake in Coventry 4/18
Message:
Had a half day today so I went to Eagleville (open all year). It was cool and partly cloudy about 5pm. I walked down the train tracks to the first clearing. I worked a shallow running shad rap in a bluegill pattern. Jerk and pause, slow retrieve, nothing. Switched to a Texas rig senko in watermelon... nothing. Walked down to the next clearing and switched to a brown trout flat rap. First cast on a slow retrieve a perch took the lure within a few feet of the rocks. Decent sized fish about 10 inches or so. After that no action. Looking forward to fishing Eagleville again this year.

Yellow perch seem to have something about hitting smaller minnow plugs in the color Brown Trout. I've caught many with the J-7, XR-6, and FLR-6 in that color. A good way to use the FLR-6 this time of year is jerk and pause, like a suspending jerkbait. Nice thing about the Flat Rap is it's a slow riser vs the Original Floater and Shallow Shad Rap.
