5-19-18

5-19-18 Lake Onalaska backwaters Pool 7, myself 730am-130pm
Weather: (1153) calm, overcast, 75º, 29.86 rising
H20: ?º, 8.5 falling, clear, 74 kcfs
Caught: A fair number of pike, 3 LMB, kept 4 pike, 1 LMB and 1 bluegill
Observations: The lilac and apple tree blooms are winding down. The river is rapidly falling and is extremely shallow behind my house. The aquatic vegetation is well under way.

My goal today was to catch some bluegills for and upcoming fish fry. It did not take me too long to realize that was an unreasonable goal. After about twenty minutes of fishing for gills I decided to concentrate on bass and pike. This fishing was not great but at least I did have some success.
