Jordanelle!

Moon Phase:
Fishing Time: 7:00 p.m. - 10:00 p.m.
Weather: Sunny, clear, 70's

My family was heading to Jordanelle today for my dad's company barbacue. They rented a very nice wakeboFarding boat and a pontoon boat and served lunch around noon. So I went up a little earlier than the rest of the group to get some fishing in. By earlier I mean 5:30 a.m. When I got there it was just getting light and we were recovering from a big rain storm that rolled through the night before. The temperature was a balmy 55 degrees and I must admit I waited almost a half hour before actually launching. When I got in it was quite cold but I soon acclimated and it was fine. I started fishing a Watermelon sparkeled Senko carolina rigged. I started getting hits immediately by the docks, but the problem was the bites were from those pesky little Perch that I hate catching. After awhile the annoyance got to me so I switched to something that they would not touch. I put on a gulp minnow in black shad color on a drop shot rig. The hits died off and I knew I had at least gotten rid of the Perch. I searched different depths trying to find where the Smallmouth were holding and soon found them in around 20 to 25 feet of water. I started landing fish left and right with none over 14 inches. Then I landed this small rainbow that put up a fight like you wouldn't believe. At around 9:00 a.m. the recreation boaters got thick and the wake they were making got really annoying so I called it an early day and was off the water by 10:00. In all I think I landed around 12 Smallmouth and the one rainbow. It was fun even though they were small. Here are some of the pics of the Smallmouth that I caught. I then went to my dad's BBQ and we had a great time. We tried to teach Dakota how to ski and ate lunch at the Keetley Pavillion. All in all another great day to spend outdoors!
