<br /> Shane and I hit the water around 3:30 this afternoon and fished close to dark.<br /> <br /> The fish are really full or something up there. They do not want to bite... in all those hours of fishing I had only caught 4 spots with the better 3 of them going 16-17 inches. They came off finesse worms texas rigged. Those were good solid 2-2.5lb fish they were full of shad. <br /> It was nice out there weather wise but I think the fishing is messed up weather wise. The always lock jaw on Parksville with cooler weather and water temps... they seem to like it from 60-75F water temps or 90-95F water temps, but anything in between or lower they always lockjaw... emoBang The water temp today was around 80F up there, NOT GOOD!<br /> <br /> Anyways the Fall colors are already starting to show just a tad bit and pleasure boaters are slowing down... maybe the Fall and Winter fishing will be better, but until then it will be time to fish the Chick.
