My Day Fishing

Met up with James and Amy this morning at Skinner Lake. We headed out in a boat and started looking for LMB across from and East of the Marina. After having no luck we moved over towards Ramp 2 and started looking for trout. The DFG supposedly stocked Skinner on Thursday, but even the trout fishing has been really quiet ever since New Year.

After a while we moved back over to the marina and after a short break we headed out East of the marina to look for LMB again. We stopped over a steep drop-off and James hooked up on a big Large Mouth, but unfortunately it got loose. The water was incredibly clear and James was able to get a good look at it before he lost it.

A big "Thank You" to James and Amy for letting me tag along today. Fishing Skinner in a boat is the only way to go!

About mid-day we parted ways and I met up with my wife, family, and some family friends for lunch and some shore fishing.

Jay and I fished for a couple more hours while the kids went back and forth between fishing and playing.

We packed it up near 3 o'clock, met up with Julie, Terri, and the rest of the kids, and let them play for a little while before heading home.

So, no bites for me at Skinner today, but.....

A beautiful day on the lake.
Crystal clear water.
A little bit of excitement from a big bass.
And enjoying both the morning and afternoon with friends.

Definitely nothing to complain about.
