A Day On The Lake with The Hollands!




What your about to read is something that is in every issue of bass masters magazine. I just wanted to take it and put it in our day of fishing today. I hope you enjoy.. Maybe you will understand it all. I have a picture that I have on my phone to show you what i looked like lol..








We arrive at Lake LB about 8:05 am we are towing a GIII Bass boat rigged with motorguide trolling motor with Hummingbird Electronics. We put the boat in the water, Christy pulls the truck up and parks it. Corey is waiting by the dock on her to get in.. She gets in, we crank the big motor and zoom straight across the lake to the cove directly across from boat ramp. Corey is using a Mitchell Spinning reel on a Shakesphere rod with a Crawdad color Bandit crankbait on it, mean while Christy is using a Axiom Reel with a Shakesphere rod throwing a Rage Tail white grub. It skips arcoss the water no takers here. Corey doesn't get any takers either. Wind is blowing out of the North like a huricanes coming. Water is white capping a little, Its kind of Chilly. COrey tells Christy that maybe we should of put our over coats on. Christy replies i thought you said it was suppose to be 70 today. I didn't hear about no wind advisory. Did i miss that report. Corey just chukles and keeps on moving up in the cove. Now he is using a Abu Gracia Reel and Rod throwing a Zoom Fat Albert Twin tail grub. No takers. By this time, christy is a little disgusted and has picked up her quick trigger spinning reel and is crappie fishing. No takers on it either. Corey cranks the big motor and we slowly move further up the lake kind in the back area a little. Christy kind of looks like a foreign person all bundled up like its cold out here. Hmm, the water temp is about 44 degrees. Temp out side feels about 44 degrees.. We make it up the lake and Christy is still using the Rhino bait caster with a Bandit Crankbait. Purple back with a white belly. She said she just bought it. No takers on it. Corey is fishing a little bit of everything. BY this time its about 10o'clock. No fish yet. Not even a bite. Christy said to hell with this lake there ain't no fish here. She said she hasn't caught a thing here. Well, the wind is blowing us around like we aren't even sitting here. Christy suggest that we go back up to the levie and troll for crappie. No takers on it either. Corey is frustrated by this time and says how bout we just go home and park this damn thing and go to the boat and RV show. christy reminds them they don't have the money. Sounds like trouble is brewing. We troll around a little more corey picks up and we drift up by the boat ramp. Corey is throwing a fork creature on his bait caster. No takers on it. Christy is bored. They finally decided its time to go. No fish here. Inconclusion I think that the wind was blowing to hard and the water wasn't quite warm enough for the fish. Corey and Christy tried everything they could but no takers. When I asked them did they want to tackle this lake again they both agreed they would wait until it was a little warmer. and make sure the wind wasn't blowing 20 to 30 miles an hour. In all they had a fun day just doing what they love. That is fishing.
