Today I just had to go fishing some where with big bows that I know where they are instead of getting brutality Frankenstein fish like on the Provo River. I was at my fishing spot by 7:00 am ish had a few fun delays happenings while on the way. Let's just say it was so much fun in a sarcastic voice. Lucky I brought the Float Tube of Death this time so she can feed on some flopping bows. First I just tossed some bait out there land 2, by the time catching those 2 bows it was time to let the float tube float me away from shore. Before leaving I notice a "Crawdad".
That was a great sign for me because I knew that my fly box had quite a few of crawdads whispering into my ear but I started with a black woolly only land on in the tube with it and then a few bites then it was dead action. Had fun time catching a few bows early morning till it was time for lunch break as well break from the cramping legs because of all the flipping around the lake I was doing. While eating on shore tossed my great old bait friend end up catching a few 15" and 16" and the first 17" on shore.
After that great lunch break of home made apple cake and other goodies I brought it was time to get serious with my fly rod. Tossed out the crawdad that was pinching my ears and saying "Use me now or you will regret it." Tossed it and flip troll around and in a matter of minute the fighting bows come to make my day. As well there was like one section on the lake if i tossed it out and trolled to shore I would get another bow one after another.
I end up catching 20+ bows mostly on crawdad or magical bait. Most fish were range from 15-16" and 6 of them were 17+". I let those small ones go and kept the 17+". Gosh the water was cold and uncomfortable but it was worth catching all the bows as well watching the big bows flopping out of the water like a missile while they unhook them selves and I watch the crawdad go one way and the fish goes the other way being free. Kept my 4 bow limit with pride.
It looked like I got a great deal on the bows for the east canyon black friday sale going on. Ha Ha Ha [
] As well remo_5_0 if you think those pics of the bows are smaller then 10" you are blind and need to stop catching those baby mud kitties at night. []
