I hit the yough around perryopolis yesterday. Got a handful of small to medium bass. Got a few on shiners and a few on black and gold Zman jerk shads. I think the water was around 55 degrees. Nice day but mediocre fishing. Probably the last kayak trip of the year. Hopefully I can get the boat out a couple times.

Didn’t get a chance to fish in Chicago. Last Wednesday would have been a great day for it though. I’ll be in Denton TX at the end of the month. Gonna try to get some fishing in down there. Lake Lewisville and Ray Roberts are right nearby.

  Thinking 'bout going Perch fishing in the rain tomorrow, I need a break from working at camp. Had the Amish replace the color ov shingles on the barn family room yesterday and today, also picked up the 10 ton dump truck today I bought over the weekend. I'm whipped, so a few hours fishing should help relax me (I Hope)
 
crappy 

Took it on the chin today. Making bait was tough, then the wind was brutal. Unc got 2 or 3 midrange strypes and I got a cat. We did get about an hour or so of semi-flat. We jigged blades off of the swim beach. Nothing doing. 59° when we left. After this next few days, into next week, temps should be getting dahn where we need em. Atleast startin to
🤞

My brother said the creeks up in Erie are blown out today, this weekend it should be elbow to **** if the weather holds up. I think I'm going to put the boat in at Tarentum or Freeport this Saturday.

And not join in the fun??? 😀

Would love to see photos if anyone does hit mupere.

Saturday, Arthur, wind, few stripes and few perch. Good to be out in the peak foliage. Could have done without the wind, but got lucky there were some hybrids hanging out in an area that was a bit shielded from the crazy winds.

No Crappie yet Pork? That's what I want to do before my boats gets put to bed for the Winter.

Lip, I didn’t get any crappie. I usually get them fishing into the dark around this time of year, but fish into the dark. I tried to fish some submerged structure, but the wind made it impossible to stay on. I haven’t figured that out in calm conditions, so I didn’t put a ton of time into it. I do want to figure it out to open up a lot of possibilities. Since the perch weren’t on fire and mostly small, I figured changing gears for hybrids would be a good gamble. I marked a school of fish hanging out in an area shielded by the wind, so figured that I’d give it a go. Ended up paying off. Usually when having to hide from the wind, the fish don’t cooperate. For the conditions, I take it as a big win.

I can't believe you went out yesterday. It was blowing here. I'm going vacation end of the month, coming back the 1st. Water temps should be getting there by then. 🤞 let yinz know.

58 degrees yesterday. I had an opening and some old friends that I haven’t fished with for years wanted to get out. 90% of the time I see wind gusts of 25-30, I don’t even consider it.
