Default Pickwick 10-16-2012

Started fishing this morning at 9:00 AM. The Gills were not where they had been being. They have moved out even deeper. The only thing I could reach them with was an 1/8 ounce jig head with a # 3 hook. While I know that really big Gills have no problem with that size hook I just miss too many with a hook that big. Still managed to catch 10 of the 9 inch Gills. Got into a few Smallies and Spots. Caught the one Smallie that measured 16 inches. Caught a couple more at the 12 inch mark. Caught my personal best Spot today....it was 18 inches and man was he fat. Caught a couple more Spots at 13 inches. I have got to find some 1/8 ounce jig heads before next Thursday with a size 8 or 6 hook. It was a great day to be out.


Regards
