We got to turtle creek at about 2:30 Thurs. and used 5/8 purple and butterscotch hair jigs with real minnow and the gulp alive minnow.
Butterscotch with alive minnow won the battle. Fished around kcan for the first 4 then went to cone reef for the next 3 and lost 2 at the boat. One shy of a 2 man ticket. The next day we may have gotten to confident in the alive minnow because we did not even buy real ones. The lake was calm and could only get .2mph drift. Again used butterscotch and purple but we did not catch a fish and we were there until about noon. We did see others catching fish so it really made us wish we would have bought some real minnows, maybe that would have made the difference with such a calm day.

We left and drove to kellys is to try for some small mouth. My buddy caught three 19 to 21 inch footballs on the north side of kellys. I did not catch anything, was that frustrating.

I'm a beliver in that GULP! stuff. We went out yeterday somewhere between Port Clinton and Davis Bessie and had five fish all between 3-5 lbs in the boat in about 2 hours. Not fast and furious, but fun none the less.:) All the fish came on 5/8 purple hair jigs and Gulp! minnows.:D
