Great weekend with the fam. Come to realize that s Wolfeboro bay is slow, kind of confirmed by my visit from Ken St Pierre, great guy. Absence of panfish is clear which you need to keep things active.. Out there 4 days, mostly in the 4-6 hour range. Day 1 got a little laker. We packed up and thought that squall was heading north, 100 yards from shore we all had to get on the ground so we didn't get blown into open water at shore...little scary at the time but laughs now. Day 2, tried the western side, full skunk. Day 3, perfect out there, figured they'd be flying...saved the day by one of the not so uncommon Pyrone's disease lakers. Not a whine from my kids all day deserved a tow back in. Few hours this morning tucked in tight nothing,, small cusk just over a foot on the lines. Of course when you find sweet digs the fishing has to suck a little bit. One more trip in 2 weeks, worried about the shorelines even with a week under freezing coming after tomorrow..convinced my man to throttle back his bubblers, but think we might be taking the canoe off the rack?
Fun derby last week, but still feeling it, half mile out in 10 inches of slush on Ossipee. About a fish per guy, couple nice browns.
