Freshtrax Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 Wow , best 48 hours of fishing in my life. Yesterdays lakerfest was fun and all but i don't fish Lake O for lakers. I've been itchin for some kings for 6 months. I've scratched the itch with browns, carp, and lakers but i needed to feel an angry spring king on the end of the line. problem was i diddnt have anyone to fish with...every one I called was busy on the Monday. Then I come across Donnely in my phone ive known him for years but we dont hang out as much as we should ...He is the kind of pal you don't talk to for months but is DFW......phone call made ... perfect he is is in.... we both want to loose a few braincells on Sunday evening so a 7 am start is settled. I was torn, to continue on with our sure thing laker beat down from the evening before of search for kings. A big moon and a high sun with flat water made the decision difficult. but we rolled the dice. set up shallow and trolled into the horizon avoiding the lemmings ( pack of 30 boats ) till we found some cooperative fish. we lost the first 2 fish halfway to the boat ..we sharpend some hooks and our luck changed landed these two pigs then the cookie cutters took over what a weekend and great start to the season
bigugli Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 Nice looking fish. Past couple of days have been just gorgeous
leaf4 Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 Sweet day! Hopefully that means this season won't be as slow as last year, I know a couple people who have got on fish already and that's a big difference from the previous two years
spincast Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 congrats - some nice bruisers there. Good to finally see them back this end of the lake after the last 2 years.
Freshtrax Posted May 25, 2016 Author Report Posted May 25, 2016 Thanks guys, I've only bin fishing lake 0 for 2 years and those are the two biggest to hit the deck. The big one hit the crappiest reel on the boat and almost spooled us twice.
AKRISONER Posted May 25, 2016 Report Posted May 25, 2016 things are definitely improving down on lake O
