Relaxing Day On Dudley
Yesterday afternoon and evening I went down to Dudley on my jon, I recently purchases a Minnkota edge bow mount trolling motor and it makes a huge difference, even though I only caught 1 great bass and a few smaller ones, it was fun. I basically trolled around most of the lake, I tried a bit of drops jotting in the deeper waters, but no luck. My best fish 3 1/2lbr was along the west shore of the pond, most of the day I was throwing a Texas rig with a 7in Powerworm, I used more natural colors, because bright colors attracted more pickerel, and a 5/0 hook with a 3/8 bullet weight. Pretty much all around the pond is 4-12ft with a max depth of 30' I was able to have ample room on this 84 acre pond. I was there 3:30 to 9:00pm and noticed most of the bigger fish where near the shores, but if you are into catching a lot, stay I. The middle areas, this is where most of the small fish are found here. So overall I had a great day here, even if it is windy, there is a lot of protective areas and there is also plenty of sand bars and rock palings near the shores to fish. If you are looking for a small new spot to take your kayak, canoe or small boat, I belive this is the perfect spot, because it's diverseity.
Hey Chris...great write-up...I remember seeing you out there in the Yak....nice to see you got the Jon boat now.
Next time you are there....go to my spot the Chateau Bar at the parking lot and have a burger/brew....one of the best burgers in Metrowest.
