Lake Hall 3-9
Posted: March 11th, 2007, 2:08 am
I had a couple of hours to kill fri. afternoon, so i grabbed a symetre 1500 on a 7ft ultra light rod and drove down to lake hall about 4pm. The leon crew team was having a practice and there were a couple of ladies on the dock sitting on buckets waiting for dinner to bite.
I went to the other side of the swimming area and waded throught the weeds about knee high. I had somewhere to be and didn't want to go with wet pants. I tied on the split tail glitter fluke that the Capt. handed me at the seminar thurs. night. I put a worm hook on it, no weight. Let it sink a few seconds, gave it a few jerks and then I did ....... "nothing" One more twitch and a bass cleaned my clock, from the leader knot down. I guess you should put a new leader on once in a while or at least re-tie.
No more glitter flukes, I had a half bag of Zoom Arkansas shiners, just plain, no fancy suits. Tied straight to the green pp. Let it sink. gave it three jerks and then I did.......... Seems like I caughtem every cast for about an hour. Half to two and a half everyone. These fish look so clean and healthy, you could just scale them and take a bite. I let the first two go, then i called to the ladies and they were more then glad to have them. I'd catch one, play him over to the swimming area and one of the chirens would come get the fish.
Great seminar, thanks to all the guys who put it together.
