20180902-Feeling Like a Guide

Days like today I really appreciate fishing… I’m feeling like a guide being able to take friends and family on the lake and putting us on the bite.

Beautiful summer weather in the mid 80’s way above normal for this time of year on the Michigan tundra. Water temps still at summer peak levels in the low to mid 70’s, slight breeze and clear skies. We made our way to some of our favorite waypoints.

Dennis is very familiar with this lake with a history of slamming the jumbo crappies with a 1/32 oz swimbait and also tagging a very nice trophy certificate P.Seed for the books last season.

Zack, first timer on this lake, was able to tag quite a few fish with the swimbait and also a few fish on the slip/float/fly/waxie in a shallow weedy cove.

After about an hours worth of fishing, I dropped them off at the launch and finished the afternoon Minor.Period with a very good bite even with the FAL levels at mid-teens.

Good time with family, and fishing … nothing better.
