Keuka 8/19

I spent the day looking for perch but could not get away from the bass.  Never realized how many there are in this lake but all I can say is if you drop shot small crayfish in 20-30' just about anywhere on the Penn Yann branch, you will not be disappointed. I wanted to see how many I could actually catch and release  and counted 20 that came to the boat. Ran out of crabs early and switched over to plastic with almost the same results.  What a great bass lake.

Yes, a lot of three pounders.  Average around 15-16". Only three or four small ones that I did not count in my total.  Even found a largemouth in the stomach of a perch!

Good to hear the bass fishing was good, Ive just started playing with the drop shot rig and can see how it would be deadly.
