Good Friday at the Oak

[Born to Fish]

Today I took my daughter and her boyfriend for a few hours at the oak.

The docks are not in yet but its pretty easy with waders to get out.

We went west , found 40 degree water, and managed a few browns in one pass.

Fish came on a J-11 Gold/Black and 14A mother of pearl.

I cant figure out the picture thing anymore.... I think I'm getting old.

I launched at Black north side, I think the gate is probably still closed at Archibald. There was another truck./ trailer next to mine when we came in, im not sure how they launch, but heres how I do it.. I use the upstream ramp because there's less debris. Basically you get wet up to your knees/waist. I take it off the trailer then walk it to the rocks on the edge of the north ramp. The water drops straight off there. You can hop in and shove off with a push pole (net handle)or just push off with your foot when you hop in, then tilt the motor when your into the channel. I have a 17.5' aluminum but we have done the same thing with the 20' fiberglass in the past. Its just as easy at golden hill bit im not sure if the ice is out there yet.
