A little fish & frog evening

[ilovesprig]

Can't hunt frogs till it's pretty pitch black...So, Matt and I fished Henshaw late in the afternoon...Pretty good bite in the shallow water...Got a few in the outside structure as well.

Then it was time to head to the pond and wait till dark...Saw deer, quail, turkeys as water becomes a premium...There weren't a ton of frogs, but 10 each ain't bad.

Steve: Be sure to leave a few frogs for the Old Man [I hit your age today].

Did you catch the bass in the trees down at the south end?

Bruce,

Happy birthday....

There's still a few big frogs left...The fish were mostly caught down near the dam...Lake is dropping fast.

Saw a lot of water coming out from the dam and rushing downstream. Will the lake drop to the point where high water temps may impact the fishery?

Yep....The La Jolla Indian tribe sued VID and now get X amount of water for their usage....The algae bloom will probably return as well...With a lower water level will come a lack of oxygen and they'll have a major fish die off....It's happened before.
