Black Friday Bass and Boulders at Mountain Island Lake



Spotted bass are still biting.




Dock lines and treble hooks, not a good combo. but made for a nice photo.



A few of the big boulders on the banks of lake.

We had a choice between fishing and shopping, we chose fishing.  Duck hunters were just getting off water as we arrived, so you know they had a cold morning at 4am.  We arrived at a warm 9:30am, with plenty of sunshine.  Water temps were about 50f to 53F, air was 38F to 45F.  Both largemouth and spotted bass were caught and released, but the blue gills, as expected, have disappeared away from the banks to their winter haunts.
