Submitted by Tom (ip 63.246.207.230)
Date Fished: 8/13/2005
Water Temperature: 75
Water Clarity: 4 feet or greater Caught some nice bass (numbers, if not size) between family events during our annual vacation at Brant. Most fish were 18-20" (although I did spot half a dead bass under my dock that had to have been 2 feet long when alive - gotta get me one of them some year).
Yellow buzz-baits and black topwaters worked well over the shallows at night (caught a bat one night too - poor thing was tangled in my line, but I got it free). Fished heavy lillypad cover during the heat of the day with 4" black tubes and 1 oz bullet weights - lots of blow-ups (not as many hooked fish) and a few nice sized bass - that was a lot of fun. Green or black 4-5" Senkos hooked through the middle worked as usual in the 6-8' weedline.
Didn't fish a lot, but was much more successful than last year. I avoided the obvious islands and 'hot spots' and tried some new points and structure - a beautiful place to fish, especially before dawn with the fog and the loons.
