First time for me at Sandy Shore lake, so was excited to fish a new one. I think one of the funnest parts of fishing is discovering new lakes, and figuring out what to use and where on the lake the fish are. Anyway I digress.

Got there around 8 am, launched and headed to the far west side of the lake with a Olive Wooly, then proceeded all the way around the lake, with not even a strike. Shifted to a White Wooly with the same results. Finally found the right one, Black Woolys, in about an hour and a half, netted and released 6 - 8-11 inch Rainbows.

Stick to the center of the lake and basically in front of the boat ramp then to the west a little. Wish I knew how to use the new "Hotspots" feature of this reporting prog.

Have fun and stay safe.

On the report from are several tabs. Just click on the "Hotspot" tab and click with your mouse on the location you want to comment on. A text box will pop up for you to write in. That's it.

Hotspots will become active for viewing when the new site is launched.

You know what, I completely forgot about that, I even had the camera in the truck for just that purpose. I will try to remember to get some the next time I am there. I will tell you that they have pretty much stripped logged every thing but a thin row of trees around the lake
