Day Fished: 11/29/00
Bait / Lures Used: P.B., Nightcrawlers
Water Temp.: ?
Water Color: Stained
Fished From: Shore
Report: Left work early due to a "tummy ache". Got to Irvine Lake about 12:30 and started feeling better already. The afternoon bite was on for some, but today was "farmer day" for me. I lost several due to various reasons including a nice one that went around the anchor rope for the ski boat dock. I did manage to land one solid #2 rainbow and saw an 8+ pounder boated by someone trolling the west shore. Nc/pb combo seemed to draw the most strikes. Trollers seemed to be doing well also. Most of the shore anglers that were catching today were throwing waaaaaay out there. Lots of shad on top of the water with occasional boils from fish below (bass?).
