Comments: It was really rough on the Valley. Boat was getting tossed
around to much to enjoy fishing. Didn't get lucky as last week. Diesel
was upset only one smallmouth on the C-D method. Well I guess 90% of the
time thats what it is all about.

Comments: this month is one of the best times to fish. for me at least.
the lake is almost empty, of boaters that is, and the fishing couldn't
be any better. the day started out slow 2 hr and only 2 fish. so it was
time to move. jackpot! the fish finder was full and the next thing I knew
the reels were singing managed to boat over 30 lakers. what a day. see
you on the lake

Comments: A great day of fishing at the Valley. Caught about 16 smallmouth
and 4 largemouth bass. Had a really big smallmouth. Just seemed to be at
the right place at the right time. The diesel caught about 6 using his
famous calm down technique.

Comments: While fighting the 24 inch Laker, the rod in my other holder
started to bounce. I set the hook and stuck it back in the rod holder while
I fought the first Laker, which I released on the surface. Circle hooks
make releasing easy. The second fish got loose half way up. Sometimes you
just need a another pair of hands. Nice day for late October.

Comments: I knew that I picked the worser of the two days (Sunday vs.
Saturday) when I launched the boat and "surf" driven be a stiff SE wind,
was splashing over my transom at the ramp. I should of headed towards the
east side but didn't feel like taking a pounding during the crossing, so
I stuck it out along the west shore. After a couple hours of bouncing without
a bite, I retreated to the relative protection of the back end of Ranger
cove where I caught a couple of Smallies.

Comments: Great day on the valley weatherwise.We stopped by the pines
when we saw trout slashing through pods of herring which were jumping in
the air to escape surface feeding fish. This happened around 9 a.m and
drew a lot of seagulls which were also feeding on pushed up herring. What
a sight even full grown eagle flew over to see what was going on. We didn't
catch many fish but we enjoyed the day. aes ay ekim
