Thanks for the shoutout Tom! My schedule has been a bear this year, I haven't yet had the kayak out (not even to Ponky). All of my fishing has been wading and fly fishing because I can quickly gear up and get out locally for a couple of hours. Glad to see the "regulars" are still at it and I always look forward to reading the tournament results.
Looking forward to Saturday. So, the pond is just off Route 2 in Lancaster. Take the exit for route 70 off route 2 an the ramp is right there. Parking is tricky and tight. There are a number of spaces labeled trailered boat only. We could double up in those but I'm told that there have been tickets given at least once before. It's probably best to drive down the little road to the ramp, turn around, and park on the right facing uphill. It will make sense when you get there. There should be enough room for us. Please note earlier start. Arrive at 6:00, launch by 6:30. See you there!
im looking for the results page and i cant find it... did you guys post it?
Not worth posting. We all caught plenty of bass, but none were keepers. I think I had "lunker" at 15 ounces. Haha.
The bigger fish must have been really deep (this place averages like 30 feet and gets down to 45). They weren't shallow, and they weren't on the first drop, ten to fifteen feet or so, as you might expect in post-spawn, so they must have been deeper. Hard to locate them that deep in kayaks unless you have electronics.
So yeah, no keepers. =(
