Lake Merwin-2-5-12

[Kokonuts]

I went out Sunday with some of my friends Joel, Paul,& Doug, It was pretty windy until about 12 & then by 3 it had slowed down a lot. We went down near the Dam to get into calmer waters and we boated 10 & missed several others. The largest were 12" but healthy looking . We ran 4 poles all day using small size Hoochies, Bugs, & Spinners but most of them hit the Pink Hoochies. All behind Pink & Gold, Pink & Silver Sling baldes. We used Pink Maggots which is about all I ever use at Merwin nowdays. They were running from the surface to 20 ft. Water temp was 39-40.

It was good to get out on the lake with my boat for the first time this year and we had a lot of Fun! Even when I was driving the boat from the front seat, talking ,laughing, drinking my coffee for about an hour BEFORE I realized that Joel had disconnected the rod that connects the 2 motors and was driving the boat from the rear seat!! Yep, they were all in on it and could hardly keep from laughing as I was just Dumb & Happy being cool driving along!! Its going to be another Great Year !!

When you steered right, did the boat ever go left? Not because of the wind.
