Robert, Andrew, and I went out to fix the railing on his boat trailer and fished a little while since we were out there. We started figuring it out, but then it started raining and the radar looked pretty severe, so we decided to head out. After running a couple errands, the rain let up so Andrew and I went back out.

Part 2
Lake: Beaver
Location: Monte Ne
Time: 4:00PM-7:00PM
Air temp: 50 degrees
Water temp: 55 degrees
Clarity: Muddy with debris.
Visibility: 6"
Wind: SE 5
Sky: Light rain
Winning tactic: Jigging laydowns 10' deep in 15' of water.
Catch: 4 crappie, 2 black bass, 1 striper

We started off trolling chartreuse crankbaits 7'-10' deep in about 15' of water. We picked up a few small ones. We tried jigging the buck brush but didn't get anything. We made a pass with the crankbaits over a couple laydowns that we had marked on the GPS. I picked up a crappie so we went back, threw out a marker,  and started vertical jigging. We caught 3 more and moved on to other known piles. No luck, so we went back to try again. No luck so we tried trolling again. I was getting a little too cold and wet to be on the water not catching fish so we headed out.

Sorry, no pics. I had way to many clothes on to try to get my phone out in the rain.
