Nice variety, still meaning to try Triadelphia sometime. Was everything caught on the broken back fire-tiger?

Love the pics! I didn't realize there was walleye in Triadelphia. I guess I should listen to my friend and go there.

Lures

The bass and one crappie came from a Mann's baby -1 crank. Everything else on the lure in the last photo.

About Time

I'll add that it's about time I caught a walleye on the bottom bouncer. I've been trying for a year using that method. It fought pretty good for the size. That thing had some cool teeth. Hopefully I'll hook into it's mother next time. I caught the Walleye at around 7:45AM on a very cloudy morning. The walleye was about half way down one of the reservoirs branch arms I guess looking for food.

The water conditions were great. Water temperature was 66 degrees. I was on the lower third of the reservoir and the main lake has great water clarity with a nice green stain. The branch arms were also pretty clear with only some stain at the very tips where creeks dump in.

Have you ever tried Crayfish on a three way swivel starting where the Patuxent dumps into Tridelphia following the channel into the main lake.

Nice job! You should give those jointed deep husky jerks a try for trolling the WSSC. There is a size 12 one and I have caught some 16-18 inch bass on it and has rattles in it for added attraction. It seems like jointed lures work a little better in these reservoirs because they create more vibration.

Good job, you always post great pics.

I know some good crappie spots I used to pull dozens of crappie with live minnows, I want to go back and try My new Mr crappie plastics see if I can get the same size and numbers as well as catching a Walleye if I ever get to catch one. Thanks for the report and pics.
