SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS

====================

So I set out today in my modified bass boat on my second trip out with my newly acquired manual riggers. I went out Thursday with the rigs and almost boated my first fish but it threw the hook, today however was destined to be my day. Set up in 120 fow but saw most of the charters were in closer, so i closed the gap and trolled into 90. no sooner did I do that then I marked a huge bait ball and a big arc behind it. Soon as my spoons passed through I was hooked up with a beauty of a steelie. I got him close and netted him and my freakin Lake O curse is now behind me! I tell ya those riggers have just made life so so much easier than trying to run three dipsy rods. The steelie was a 9 lbr and I am a very happy fisherman, also this all happened in about 45 min from start to finish cause right after I boated the fish the waves really kicked up. But my confidence is way boosted and I cant wait to hit the 90 depth again cause it seems to be hot!

[skippersdream]

As stated by Ray, your going to love and hate lake O. Mostly hate... But I hope your wallet is prepared for your addiction. Its like a drug.

Rigg'r done! Nice fish!

I agree with Ray. Lake O is great, but those days where you sit out there with the waves and catch nothing can be aggravating.
