Despite the cold weather we have still been fishing without much to report. Last Friday after work I made my way to Rocky Fork Lake in search of crappie. After a couple nights with temperatures in the teens I was a little concerned that the lake would have ice, so I called a local bait shop and got a status report. They told me the ice was minimal and that was good enough for me. I arrived to find the portion of the lake I intended to fish to be ice free. I found a quick bite using minnow floats set around 10ft deep on a ledge I have known to hold crappie. Soon thereafter the bite died. I tried several spots that we have had success at in the past with no bites. By the end of the day I returned to the original spot which I had success at to catch a few more. On the day I caught 7 crappie. The bite was definitely slow and the crappie were biting very light.
Even though the fishing has been slow, it has been a good opportunity to get acquainted with my NuCanoe Frontier. I'm very pleased with it. I'll be doing a more detailed blog on my initial experiences with the Frontier soon. I took a couple pictures while out Friday to show off how spacious and comfortable the Frontier is.
