I think MLF had a team event on that lake not to long ago if I remember right.  The Heritage Cup Championship in 2024 I think.  Way to go on the finish!

You may be able to put some kayak hangers on that trailer of yours. Rod tubes on the roof of it?? 🤔 Dual purpose that rig, 😆 🤣 😂! That's awesome though! That time is special and somehow goes so fast!

Yeah I don't know what the story is with the place, and there's a boat landing. I don't know how I've never heard of that place having that. I've done a ice fishing fishery event on crystal lake right beside that, not to long ago with my cousin that lake is apart of the event if you wanna fish it. We'll I know its there now, 😆

It's different, fun place for sure.  Went back the next day when the wind was a bit better and adjusted my gear set up so I could move around more efferently with all the branches and debris in there and picked that place apart!  Bass all over!!  There is a lot of that dead standing timber that covers the border of the lake to so there is cover for them fish to hide in.

Check out Fish Lake, in Roxbury.  It's close to Sauk City, right about in the middle of you and I. Google earth it once!  Electric motors only.  Kind of a wild area, a lot going on in that spot. 

I had a full load out the day I scouted the place out, to many trees, had to lay everything down and it was windy, couldn't stay still, couldn't really use the motor in there either.  Went back the next day with the right gear and picked that place apart and had a blast doing it!  Had a really good couple of days at that lake.

Way to go Ray

You caught a bunch of really nice fish in these pictures, some pretty chunky ones in there! 

Id eat me a bass!

I think the " professional " thing to do is a 1, 1000 count...  But when that bite is happening, well I just tend to pull the trigger!!  I got about 3 weeks till that bite is going to be anything up this way, can't wait!  I like to put a little nail weight into the back of my frogs that gets that tail end down into the water just a tad bit more than stock and that seems to really help my bite hook ups even if I get a little bit more jumpy on the hook set!  Also, I like cutting those leg strands down a bit, between 1.5" to 2" max. length is my personal preference.  Oh that's such a fun bite!!
