OH Dam 5-21-14
I fished the dam yesterday morning for the first time with a buddy. Launched the boat at 5:15 and fished until about 8. I wish I could say that we caught a bunch of fish but neither one of us put a single fish in the boat.
I came back after work looking for a little redemption. Every cow in every field was up grazing and I saw 8 or so deer on the way in. Thought maybe it was Mother Nature's way of telling me I was in for some fine fishing...NOPE! I threw everything I had at them until about 9 when I decided to call it a day fish-less (not even a skippie). I had one good bite on a white buck tail jig but it spit the hook after a couple short pulls of drag.
One other boat showed up around sunset. They blew the generator horn right when they got there so I fell back. They moved right up next to the 2nd generator as it came online and dropped anchor...
Seemed like everyone else there was fishing some sort of river rig. Big heavy weight with a spoon or something below it? Saw a couple fish caught but nothing huge. Water temp was 65.
Ill be back at it first of the week trying to get this monkey off my back.
