Split Rock Res. 5/22:

[AndyS]

Whew, really took it on the chin today ! Met up with a buddy it met from Catfishonthelake, he's fished S.R. before. We took off with a bunch of shiners and sunnies and hit a spot in the front, slow, maybe a yellow perch. Headed to the back and fished 2 spots, again, just a few big yellow perch.
Came back to the front and got some big yellow perch and a little SMB. I thought with the overcast we were gonna do really well, sloooooow day, fished from 7am till noon.
After fishing I spent better than half an hour cleaning up the parking lot. I filled two five gallon buckets, mostly water bottles and stuff, I must admit by the time I left the parking lot looked pretty darn good.
It's early for me to be fishing S.R, I'm usually not up there till mid to late June. I guess I zigged when I should have zagged (shoulda been at Merrill Creek Res.) The weather held off and it never rained.
Weather permitting I guess I'll try to get back to MCR during the week. I feel like Catfishonthelake, trying to fish everyday !
