Water a little dirty
Wanting to see a little different scenery we headed down to Lanark. Looking for some reds on a spoon, but that didn't happen.
We fished west of Lanark Boat Club all along 98. Nothing happening there, so we decided to do a little exploring.
We hit a deep slot between sand bars and found a few small trout that wanted some jerk baits. Then the Spaniards came in. They were nice ones liked the Zoom Fat Alberts, they must look like the bait they were chasing.
We continued west and found a pretty flat at the mouth of Carrabelle and the badonk a donk went to work. This one measured 23 inches and weighed four pounds and put up a heck of a fight in the shallow water.
A few casts later a fatter, shorter trout wanted the donk. Again, she put on quite a battle as there was no where to go but up or sideways in the shallow water. Although shorter, this one was much fatter and also pulled down the scale to 4 pounds.
All in all a very nice morning on the water, but I wish they didn't charge $10 to put in at the Lanark Boat Basin. Heck, that is a gallon of gas I could be burning!
