Fishing Report Burwell July 30

[Dmanwithnoname]

Big otter creek messed up with the rain, complete gong show at the ramp.Logs and debris everywhere. Strong currents and ass hats almost exclusive. Set up in 56 and went to 63. Got a 2 guy limit but worked for it

 

[Way She Goes]

Ouch

 

[Skunked2Often]

OUCH !! ... on both accounts.

 

[GMAC]

Double ouch!!!! Good fish but sorry about the hooks.

 

[Dmanwithnoname]

Meh not so bad when you have redneck friends

 

[hvyhaul]

Ouch, at least you know it isn't a sheephead cuz all three hooks would have been buried.

 

[Dmanwithnoname]

Naw it was ugly hvy, I’ll call the doc to get antibiotics tomorrow- no sense of sitting in emergency fo no good reason

 

[Dmanwithnoname]

Limits though lol !!

[Wave Runner]

Triple ouch @Dmanwithnoname... I'm sure that's not what you had in mind when you said you were going to catch the biggest one today.
I'm also sure EV will have a comment about your adventure today.
Good fishing by the way!

It will happen to anyone who reaches into the net to grab a fish with a hook present. Just a matter of time

Nerd!

Yup we got our 18, but I wasn’t looking forward to the ramp with that wicked current. Have never seen it that way in all the years I’ve been going, since the early 80’s…..except for the spring melt. The amount of logs, sticks and garbage out in the lake is crazy

Yes mine did that, then noticed all the fluid was gone out of it.

No, but I and others have found a cell phone placed in the right (wrong) location can make an autopilot think it's in the Erie Bermuda Triangle.
