Thanks Joe, thanks twice. The first is for posting the picture of the Lm on
abpf. I was looking to tie on a spinnerbait early this morning and it was
dark and rainy. I opted for the miidnight snck with copper and gold blades.
In the next half hour I had 3 LM to the boat and in an hour had landed my
4th. The spinnerbait bite died down when light took hold. It was real slow
with onl 1 more fish taken on a speedworm and a small fish at that.


I remebered the article you posted the link to about fishing "Flukes", I
rigged one up and was subsequently met with a hard thud. I set the hook on a
2lb10 oz lm.

I continued working the fluke in open water and took 3 more fish with it up
to 3 lbs and a nasty 3 lb pickerel which left it's mark when I tried to hold
him by the gil plate..ouch!!! Back out to the main lake I hit the point that
I caught the SW bass on. This time there were 4 other boats(crowded on this
lake) Well the next hour and a half produced 8 or 9 more fish in the 1 to 3
pound range. I couldn't help but smile as the guys fishing across from me
with live bait were skunking hard. And to think that all this came from a
post that no one read : )
