Pory Henry - 11/15
Posted: Mon Nov 15, 2021 9:24 am
Mentally, I was somewhere between persistence and insanity Sunday morning - So I went fishing - Hi hopes and low expectations.
Launched out of PH at 7:45 - and started exploring - fishing dipsy w/Wonder Bread and DR w/SunRise Speedi - hit the two 50' hole out front - marked but no bites - trolled up along the RR tracks in hopes of stumbling on some spawning lakers, but only stubbed my toe - nothing at Beaver Brook either.
Head to Fishville and worked in and out over 100 foot line from NY east to Mud Island on the VT side - the screen looked like a "polar bear in a snow storm"
Crossed back to Dudley and started south - started to see small bait balls in the 50-70 depths - changed dipsy to a rainbow HB and DR to purple/black HB - almost immediately the dipsy slams down - Fish On! - small laker - I'm looking like a genius! But that didn't last, infact I went another hour without a bump - then just south of Mullen's I popped another small laker on the dipsy and that ended the day.
Encouraging - a bit more life, water temp @ 49F from surface to 75' - coincidence or not all 5 fish in last two trips have been on a 3-1/4" dipsy 30 pulls back -
Weather looks like "dog-doo" this week so they'll be getting a break
