Fished between Clark Reservoir and Milton Lake last nite from 7:15 till dark (not very long). Took a handful of casts w/ a 5" inch senko in pumpkinseed color and landed this lil' hawg. The fish measured about 17" or so inches. I'm a size 11 so the timberland boot in the picture should help give it a base for comparison. I left immediately after I released her as I was more than satisfied with the one fish. Catch em' up.

Nice fish....I was looking for a place to go tomorrow (got the day off) so maybe you just gave me my answer. Thanks.

Healthy looking fish. Is Clark Reservoir the one you can see from the Parkway?

great fish! the same seems to hold true for me, my best fish of the day is often the first and sometimes I think, being satisfed by it, that I should just leave and hit them again the next day. of course I don't but I have left em biting so that's something :p

Skunk--yes. It's a pretty large watershed, too. Decent # of spots accessible from shore. I dont think boats or yaks are allowed in there as I've never seen anyone floating in there. It's been a fruitful spot for me this year with fish pushing 4 lbs on senkos and white spinnerbaits.
