.... and nervous. Tommorrow Hammer and I are fishing our first classic with
real prizes on the line. I don't have a solid plan. Last weekend was a
slow grind for a small limit that put me in 10th or 12th place.

I know where we caught fish, and the one guy I talked to that spent all day
fishing my other pattern had the same results. An all day grind for small
fish. A smaller limit than mine.

I'm almost ready to try my winter spots and winter ultra slow patterns.
Strange when it feels like we should be getting a strong fall feed.

I hit a fall pattern feeding frenzy about five weeks ago, but nothing since.
I have picked up a few fish in those same areas, but just the ones that live
there, not the ones who were actively chasing.

I'm lost. Maybe just grind with slower smaller finnesse rigs.

Yes, but we get water from up north. The water temp has started to drop
significantly. Of course thats probably meaningless unless you fish theis
area. 3 or 4 weeks ago the surface temps were running around 90 in the
channel, and as high as 96-98 in the backwaters and lakes. The sruface temp
everywhere last weekend was 81-85. Big drop in temp. Its doing weird
things to the fish. All I seem to be able to catch consistantly is small
active fish. Only one or two decent fish in a day. Nothing seems to work
two days in a row either.

Water has cooled here in NE P.A also and small fish are the majority
feeders, or at least for me they are. I was fishing jigs, flukes,
speedworms. There is no particular pattern that I could find today. I did
manage 8 fish to the boat and a few toothy critters. Dave almost skunked on
3 lakes here with me but followed up on a fish I missed on a speed worm. He
got it with the fluke. They are starting to herd up some nice schools of
baitfish on the smaller lake and some of the bigger fish I have caught there
seem to be eating well. Just good to be back out fishing again

Bob, is that the ABA classic at Mead? I thought that was in October? Or

Went out for a short while this afternoon and the water temp has dropped
another ten degrees.

This is the Aluminum Boats Only ABA Classic. They are giving away lots of
cash and a Tracker boat. I figure IF (note the big if) we win it there will
probably be a brand new boat out on EBAY shortly. They decided to have it
here. I hope it goes well and lots of good limits are weighed in. It would
be a real coupe for Dave to have a regular classic here.

Yes, Hammer and I are fishing the classic on Meade in two weeks also. There
is different. I have absolutely no plan. I figure to just go fish some
good looking spots and see what happens.

Anything over mid 80's & your fish are stressed regardless Bob. Now you
should start to see some improved action & bigger fish.

Bob, good luck in classic tomorrow! And be sure and say hello to the
"kid" when you are up at the ABA Classic at Mead....tell him his "ole

John

LOL... I have been catching great fish all summer. Our fish are too stuoid
to know they should swim up river. 6+ months out of the year our water is
over 80 degrees.
