Charleston On Lanier 9.18.17

    Now that the storms have finally calmed down I was itching to get back out on the water. I got with my buddy Jim and we put in at Charleston Park to hunt some Stripers. I actually brought my GoPro along on the trip but it was having some issues connecting with my remote so I missed some early morning topwater action. Throwing a small white Spook, I had one hit at it three times but I was messing with the camera and missed it, Grrrr. Jim had a topwater strike and miss as well. As the water temperature drops the action should pick up in the next 2-3 weeks.

    Not much luck on the downline or trolling. It could have something to do with the lake starting to turn over. Reports told me the bite would be tough right now. Here are a couple shots of bubbles from lake turnover....

    Water temps started around 76 early in the day and got up to 79 at times. We fished with Bluebacks and jigged on occasion with bucktails. We fished Six Mile, The Dam and Old Federal.

    We both managed a catfish though. Jim did not get a picture of his....

We had an awesome lunch at Pig Tales and dinner ended up being Gordons LOL Can't catch Em' Buy Em' LOL
