Took a "family" day yesterday and did not expect to see any water until next Saturday...and then the preacher announced that there would be no service tonight emoTongue . With gas conservation an issue as well as the phenomenal amount of recreational boaters, we decided to spend the afternoon in Gunstocker. I'm sure you've heard the saying "Wind from the West, fishings best". My father-in-law and I have found that a wind from the west means Gunstocker is best.

Oddly enough, they would not touch the usual spinnerbait but would demolish a Gulp sinking minnow or soft jerkbait. We also tried the new "rage" by swimming a jig and found that it works surprisingly well. A half ounce black and blue jig looks nothing like a shad but the spots didn't seem to care. Late in the evening I caught two really good largemouth on a beaver dam on consecutive casts. I still don't have a camera so I won't post the weights...you guys would just say "Yeah, sure you did "
