Spinnerbaits, Tubes & Drop Shots worked the 1st day of my holiday's. Aug 22-14.

 

Aug 25-14 Dan & I had a good evening out, not to many pictures taken. Spinnerbaits, Crankbaits & Buzzbaits were working

Aug 26 no partner so I headed out at after 3pm until about 8pm. Crankbaits & Spinnerbaits worked on the Bass

Drop Shotting Bassmagnet Twitch worked good for the Crappie but didn't catch any Bass.

About 11" Crappie not bad for a new lake, likely my biggest.

Mitch had Spinnerbaits working.

More Drop Shotting Bassmagnet Twitch.

Aug 28 Crankbaits worked very well with a few coming on Spinnerbaits. No partner again so lots of selfies lol.

1st Gay Lea Foods Kids Fishing Day/Weekend

Lots has happened this summer so far, starting with I brought up the idea of having a Kids fishing day with work & after a bit of discussion I had it approved & was given a budget of $1,000.00 sweet, we had a committee set up & started organizing the 1st Teeswater Gay Lea Foods Kids Fishing Day for Jun 8-14, which was changed into an all weekend event after 1 week, we had 7 trailers/tents on Friday night & 11 on Saturday night, we had Sunday set for a little fishing fun from 11 to 6pm with a bbq from 4 to 6pm, some of us started fishing Friday to try & find panfish for the kids on Sunday, I took both of my boats & a few other took theirs plus Sunday we rented Silver Lake Camps 3 boats, canoe, paddle boats & the participants shared them throughout the day. I was on a shopping trip to buy some tackle (small jigs, hooks & plastics) to hand out when the kids arrived so they had the right size tackle for the panfish, for Prizes we had a variety of tackle packs, tackle box, a few Rod & Reel combos, on Friday & Saturday the kids camping with us got to go out & fish & we had anywhere from 20 to 75 panfish in 1 hour, there was 4 girls under 8 & they caught 75 panfish in 1.25 hours, the weather was perfect all weekend & we ended up with 85 participants with over 35 kids a very successful weekend & plans are being made for the 2nd annual kids fishing day/weekend next year. Some of the kids were even tubing behind 1 of the boats. The BBQ was Porkchops, Chicken, Hamburgs & Hotdogs with all the trimmings, Salad, Cake, chips, soft drinks etc. There was a nice crew of adults that stepped up to BBQ & set-up & take down everything that needed to be done for the meal. 

A huge success Thanx for anyone that helped pull it off.

Teeswater Fall Fair Demolition Derby Aug 22, 2014

A great evening 4 hours & about 40 Smallies

One of the better days that I've had in a while & likely one of Mitch's best ever, lots of 18" & 19" smallies with a few 20", we covered lots of water & Mitch caught most of his on Spinnerbaits, mine came on 2 different Spinnerbaits, 3 Crankbaits, Bassmagnet Tubes & Drop Shotting Slammers, there was a little bit of thunder just as we got out, then enough rain that we put the rain coats on for about 3/4 of an hour, a little sprinkle as we were loading the boat with rain & Sheet lightning on the way home perfect night.

Tight Lines.  

Dave's 1st trip out fishing this year & it's the middle of August

Bassmagnet tube jigs worked for a while & then Drop Shotting Slammers took over & helped make our day a success, we ended up with 15 or 20 Smallies about 14" to 19.5" not bad for a Sunday afternoon. We even had a couple double headers, it was nice to be able to bring 1 to the boat & have 3 more with it & see Dave drop a Tube in & catch one of them. Hopefully his Golf slows down & his Fishing picks up.

A nice surprise & it came on a Bassmagnets Tube Jig.

Pre Fishing for Gay Lea Foods Kids Fishing Day

May 28 had my Grand daughters out to try for some panfish, lots of rockbass were hitting Crappie Jigs with lots of different plastics.

May 29 Tyler & I found lots of Crappie areas for when the kids arrived plus some bluegill areas.

Robbie with a New Rod & a Few Smallies 3.3lbs.

Started off picking up Robbie & then headed to Baie Du Dore & Bruce A, things started with a hit on a Spinner bait a big jump from a Smallie & a long distance release, a couple more were able to get off on the Spinnerbaits & Crankbaits in the Bay them we headed to Bruce A & the out flow, the water was moving very quick & we ended up getting a few nice Smallies on Bassmagnet Tubes from 3 to 4.1 lbs. After a few meesed up reels & 1 broken Rod we were done at 18:00 & headed for home, until next time
