Surveying a New Honey Hole


Hey all I took my new raft to a honey hole with Tim and we had a pretty good time. I haven't been on for awhile, because of college stuff, but anyway I'm back. We put the raft in and we headed out to some openings where the wind wasn't as intense. In the first 15 minutes I had a big largemouth on. I'd estimate it weighed in the 2.5-3lb range as it started pulling the raft. The first time a fish has done that to the raft. It jumped while I was reeling it in and I lost tension and the fish. I had it on on a Zoom Baby Brush Hog. That was the extent of my luck for the entire day as I couldn't even manage a hit.
Tim who was also fishing a Brush Hog, but in a darker color had good luck. He caught about five bass including one keeper that weighed 1lb 5ounces. I'm sorry I would right much more, but I'm really tired and have a bit of heat exhaustion, because it was about 100 degrees out there without any shade what so ever. The Brush Hog got an A like it normally does and the raft held up well, we might head back there at somepoint this week. We might also head back to Misch Lake.
Thanks for reading, Bass-Sniper

Hey whats up, my name is nick, I live in sterling heights and I usually go fishing on lake st clair. I intend on going fishing at stony creek. Off of the shore with either live bait or lures. Are you familiar with stony creek and if so do you know any good places to head to in the park?

Hey Nick, thanks for reading and thanks even more for commenting. I have never personally fished Stony Creek, but I looked at a map and I can tell you what I would look for. Fishing from shore I'd fish any and all boat docks I could find starting with Jigs or Senko worms. I would try around the North Dam and I would also try places where the creek gets wider. Hope this helps and thanks for reading, Bass-Sniper
