Greetings Fellow Anglers..........

Well...today was the full moon peak for October and after last years same period, no telling what to expect...waited out the rain and lightening till about 10 then went out to several more light showers...

water has chilled down to around 53...so it's getting almost ideal...today was a real struggle for me...could not really connect on too much at first, 1 crappie, 1 pic. and 1 sunfish! til noon....when the peak hours came up 11:50 to 2:50, that's when things got going...went down to the stream entrance from Hopatcong...total catch for the day was 14 perch, 6 crappie, 5 pickeral, 4 bass and 2 sunfish for a total of 31...after 3 things died

all bass came from upper end,,,I was using that 2 3/4" blue crankbait from last October...had one LARGE bass on and broke off (6lb test) saw him swim with my lure and waited him out...sure enough he clears the water in front of me...leaves me my crankbait...retie and moved back...see this large shape ahead of me....I reeled it just over his head...almost put it back in his mouth changed mind....big fish though...next cast got this one in the picture

had a big one on, on yellow/orange spinnerbait...probably big one of the day...came off...stupid me...some of these stores put plastic guards on the hook...yes...forgot to remove it!

I did get a couple on plactic minnows...but nothing on the rapalas like last year, or buzz baits...the bass are still small, for me,..the perch were all good size and so were the crappie

Regards,

John S.
