Weekday Rainbow Trout and Bass Shepherd Lake

[KRocks]

We live in the most densely populated state in the country, yet it never ceases to amaze me that if you pick the right body of water at the right time/day, you can have an epic outing, and have it all to yourself.

A couple of hours post-rain this evening and my buddy Steve and I scored a bunch of bows chasing bait-fish near the surface. They hit jighead Keitech fat worms of all things, and ignored the shiners we offered. Then we caught some nice LMB on shiners that completely ignored the Keitech jig offerings. Go figure?

I swore I wouldn't fish here during the summer because of the crowds. Am glad I didn't follow my own advice! Just pray for inclement weather on a weekday and hit it hard!

Couple o' pics.

Tight lines all you Jerzee Fishin' Foolz!
