1000 acre swamp report

[magsthedog]

     it was a pretty slow day.  friend got a decent pick and a small bass.  I got about 30 four inch yellows.  About 14 inches of ice in the middle with the shore locked up tight.  the highlight of the day was buying bait at Tafts Tackle and getting to see the monster pike the kid caught. wicked sweet fish!

     Thats too bad. It is off the beaten path so i figured it would have had potential.  I have never seen so many tiny perch in one day.  Maybe in a couple years it will be productive again

Not only was this happening, but there was also some drought and beaver damage.  This was one of my most favorite places to fish, either on the hard or soft water.  One time, a few years ago, we went to fish it and the swamp had emptied quite a bit.  Saw some nice fish struggling and some even dead in the mud.  Very sad as this was once a great bass fishery.
