20150913-Kerswill Lake – What a Difference from One Day To the Next…
Jumped on the chance to hit Kerswill Lake despite the results of the previous day at Wixom Lake. Locale lakes are experiencing a severe cool down after a series of days of lows in the low 40s. water temps dropped to surface temps in the mid 60s from low 80s just days prior… OUCH!!
The forecast was projected to be a near perfect summer day… clear skies light winds and moderate temps in the low 80’s. a weather rebound! Forecast is also upbeat for the rest of the week.
It didn’t take long for us to connect on some fish on one of our lake hotspots. Drop shotting chartreuse and pink waxies in about 20+ FOW was the ticket at this particular spot and B’Gill came to vessel one after another. We fished for B’Gill till about 18:00 and then slowly switched to crappie. Tabbert Jelly Jigs, YammaMinnows and 2” Power Minnows on 1/32 oz jig heads were used to nail them.
Kept about 20 fish in my new revamped live well that kept the fish fresh for hours. the B'Gills and Crappie that were kept fit the slot under 8" for the gills and under 11" for the Black Crappie
