Got to sawyer at noon. First time ever fishing this lake. Just bought a brand new alumacraft Jon 1448 and decked it out :) so had to try it out today. First fish about an hour in on jig, southeast shore (1.8 largemouth). Then again 5 min later hooked a smallie on same setup a out the same size as the largemouth. Tried hard fishin docks for the next couple hours and nothing! I threw spinnerbaits, crankbait, jig, and worm. Soooo frustrating cause I here this is how most catch em there. Grrrrr. Anyways, made my way down to the farthest south part of the lake and nabbed another largemouth on the trusty jig (2lbs). I tried fishing the somewhat long "bay/channel" thing on the southeast end. (It leads to some type of run-off) looked awesome but nothing :(. So all in all a decent day on the water but not the best time of day to be bassin. Any help on this lake? Thanks.

Congrats on the new boat and it's maiden voyage. Not bad success for your first time on this lake especially with a new set up. Continued good luck to you!

Great job on your first trip to the lake, and now that the boat is christened then you won't be able to stop fishing. :-)

haha, thanks guys! Im still waiting for one of those 15 fish days i see people having consistently....but love the new rig, it was awesome. Unfortunatley I have to work a lot so fishing is still on the back burner. But my #1 past time :)

nice boat. Did it come set up with the carpeted platform in the bow, and is that a hole for a seat post? that is exactly what i am looking for. where did you get it and if you dont mind me asking about how much should i expect to pay for one?

boat did not come with the bow...took me many hours working on that! Boat comes standard with a very small platform. You can buy the boat only at cabela's for ~ $1800. Paid roughly ~1000 for the trailer. So this setup is around $3000. I put 2 storage bins in bow also and yes, drilled a hole for a stand up seat :)
