Evening Trip

May 15, 2012
Lake Bloomington
5:30PM-8PM
Temp: Low 80's Wind 10-15MPH
Water: 72F low heavily stained

4 LM Bass (All less than 12")

1 Small white bass

1 Above average size blugill.

All fish were caught with chartreuse and black KVD 1.0 .  The fish were all caught at spot 1 on the map, they were caught pretty close to the bank in less than 4' of water.  The wind was blowing pretty hard I was letting the wind drift the boat instead of using the trolling motor.  This was a mistake because someone moved into the spot after they noticed that I caught one, and I was not able to get back on it.  I am pretty sure that i would have been able to catch more than 4.
