They had pictures of big fish , I paid 300 for a boat ride.
This august heat makes the fishing a little harder. So sorry about the bite.
To start out, on top of the $400.00 day trip, I had to buy and pick up 4 dozen shiners. I talked to the Captain and he said we needed the shiners, they cost $22.00 a doz. The early morning action was pretty good we had some bites and caught three fish. After that, the fishing action was just about done or the day. We trolled offshore for a couple hours with no luck. The Captain asked us if we wanted to make it a half day trip instead of a full day, this was quite discouraging because we wanted to catch some big bass. We decided to try and finish the day, but we just went back to trolling again, at which time I decided to call it quits. They said this was a great bass lake and a great captain, so I thought we would try anything and everything to catch fish, not so. If shiners didn’t work, that was it. The weather got a little windy and a light rain fell, but I expected a multi-tournament Captain to overcome these little set backs. $395.00 trip fee, $88.00 bait cost, hotel for the night, etc,,, One hell of a price for a bad day on the water.
