5-20-18

5-20-18 10:45am-8:30pm with Scott
Where/What: Mississippi River pool 8 bass and pike fishing
Weather: Rain to sun, 54-64º 29.96 falling
H20: 63º, 8.22 falling, clear, 71 kcfs
Caught: Lots of bass and pike with a few dog fish and two small mouth bass caught by Scott

Observations: The water is still relatively high below the dam. Some of the trees are still flooded. Lily pads are starting to rest on the surface but other than that there is not much aquatic growth in this area.

The fishing was quite good today. The fish count between the two of us easily exceeded fifty fish, with the majority being large mouth bass. Numbers wise between the two of us we were pretty close to being even. Scott pretty much stayed with a chatter bait all day, whereas I changed up quite often. My two go to baits were an in line mepps spinner and a swim jig.
