kilroy69 993 Posted April 26, 2020 I have not had a chance to do any type of kayak fishing at all this year. Between supershitty weather and and having my kid by myself in isolation for the last 40 days it just has not happened. His mom isolated a few weeks back and she took him yesterday for the first time. Tomorrow is going to be 60 and just enough wind to move my kayak without me using effort. I am going to get baked and float on the lake from 9am till probably 8pm with breaks for food and an old man nap. I am still working but I don't care. I need a break from groundhog day. This time last year I had 6 pike and a 6.5 lb bass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTSkiBum 1,593 Posted April 27, 2020 I was out fishing this morning and caught a bunch of crappie prior to 7:30 am and then the fish just shut off, not a single hit after that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MTSkiBum 1,593 Posted April 27, 2020 Below is where I will be fishing next week. I tried this spot for a little bit after the fish shut off at the previous spot. It looks pretty fishy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTSkiBum 1,593 Posted April 27, 2020 3 hours ago, Alias Detective said: What size Aglia? 1/4 ounce red and white stripe, it is not the best lure for any specific species of fish, but I have caught everything on it: Mahi mahi, triple tail, bass, walleye, blue gill, tilapia, and of course trout. If I do not know what I am going to catch it is the first thing I try. I had never fished in this spot before and did not even know what species were in the pond. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a new favorite lure for trout - Joe’s flies. If you haven’t tried them, and enjoy catching trout on ultralight tackle, give them a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My parents have a house in the Denver suburb's on a trout creek that I have visited a few times, but it just has small brook trout in it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joes flies come in size 10 and if a hatch is coming off native brook trout will smash em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 993 Posted April 28, 2020 Did not catch anything good. A few small panfish. But man I got out and kayaked for hours and it felt so wonderful. As soon as I'm done with my 930 meeting today I'll be out on the water again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
