Macks Fish Reports

I been at home for many moons getting over this sickness so I had To get some water medicine. We launched the sages boat and headed out. Saw the first carp rise in the middle and then a set of spawners in the deep so I grabbed my bow and stuck the next pair I saw. Then put the bow up grabbed the rods we headed off to look for trout saw some jumpers but they were small state stuff so kept it pushing. There was a certain class of trout I was looking for and that was the bigger fish, looking for that 2-2.5 pound class of trout and bam saw a jumper. It was the right size so Jason got the boat in position and sent out some juvi spoons. I was waiting until I can see them on the electronics to make a plan on what they were doing. Saw a few close to the top then bigger carp in the middle and the small groups of trout hugging the bottom so I adjusted and said low and slow. Being that we were in only 7 feet of water. The first bite was on in less than 2 minutes. 2 pounder. This is the school I was looking for because this is also were the bigger fish will be hanging out. As the sun rose higher and the bite slowed we adjusted and moved the boat a little deeper. First in 7 feet then to 9 then to 13. Warmer the day deeper the fish will go. Let me tell after 8 double hook-ups and 1 triple hookup and lots of single bites we smacked the trout. We hooked fought netted then released. Over and over again. The Smallest 5 inches long, biggest 2.80 pounds with an above average of 2 pounds plus. We landed 66 trout lost 5 others today and but only kept our limits of 20 for us 4. As we were about to head in saw a family of 4 on a rental boat and they looked to be struggling. So we pulled next to them they havent caught a fish in two days. Turns out 4 # test was the thinnest line they had. Looked to be mostly 8 # on their rods. So Jason reached into his box handed them a new roll of two pound izor # # # line and we gave them some trout so they could take something home for dinner. Such a fun day on the water.
