PG Report: 8/17/06 .... GEM
This Evening Like most Evenings Neil and I set out For Some Large Mouth Bass action. We Hit the Discharge Around 7:15p.m. only to Nail three Together Neil Caught two And I caught one on my first cast. So Since only three we decided to fish My Favorite Local spot about 5 Minutes away From my house We set out to my "GEM" Spot as Usually on Overcast/Rainy days The large Mouth Get Stacked up here. There's no Discharge just a Shallow Flat 2-3 feet with a lot of Submerged Brush and Trees with a vast amount of bait Fish including Gizzard shad, Golden Shiners, And Tons of Minnows. Usually this spot Produces very nice Crappie but Mostly in the fall and spring. After a Self Struggle Through all the brush and Thorns just getting to the spot. I started tossing out a Personal Bait of Choice for the Chicago River Catching a Bass on every two to three cast. It was Great Catching bass at night Neil unfortunately had no success at this spot but will next time !!
Tomorrow we are trying are luck else were.... Look for the Report !
