Braddocks 7/17 - Biting Fly Bloodbath!!

[EKoselny]

Went out for a little after work. On the water around 5:00PM, lot of bait in 60'-80' with some good marks. Got one quick in 80', down 60' on a downrigger. 10lb king took a UV green pumpkin seed Stingray. Then in about 100' of water a horde of biting flies like I have never seen before descended on us. There had to be thousands of them, it was like something out of a horror movie. I sprayed my legs and ankles with buggins but it did not keep the all away. We had to pack it up and head in, it was just too much to deal with, especially when the rods were not moving. Back to the dock by 6:30. Next time I am bringing pants and long sleeves.

Sawyer Permethrin works best for me. Prob 95% of the time.   You can get it on amazon.  Also a 12v fan does wonders if you have room for it.
