overcast but I went out anyway! managed to snag a couple more bass, good size. used a crankbait this time, they were really biting! got soaked in the rain but it was fun watching the fish hit. can’t wait for the next trip!

partly cloudy, perfect conditions! caught some nice sunnies and a decent channel cat, using some nightcrawlers I dug up. the cat was about 18", feelin lucky today! weather was nice, just breezy enough to keep the bugs away.
well today was rough, patchy rain and cold! didn’t catch anything, just got wet and cold. tried fishing with spinnerbaits but no luck. might need to change spots next time. guess it happens, just gotta keep trying!
ugh what a day! it was raining most of the time and super windy. still, I caught a nice bluegill on a worm! it was cold and damp, but I didn’t mind too much. just happy to be out. my friends kinda gave up tho, lol. we will try again when it’s nicer!
hit the lakes again, beautiful sunny day but fish were a bit shy. managed to catch a couple smaller walleye, around 14". just using a slip bobber with leeches. water temp was decent but felt like they were just down deep. keeps ya coming back tho!
