Randall Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Lake Varner closed just a few days back because of the drought and what they called dangerous conditions :. Before Varner closed I got a good one just a few days before they closed the ramp. It closed just when I was on the big fish good catching three or four over ten pounds in a few weeks. Next best option that was still open to fish after Varner closed for big fish was Lake Acworth so I went out with my buddy Roy Mims and his son Jake to Lake Acworth last Saturday. The lake was at full pool which was nice but it was windy and cold. We got on a good group of fish in one small area and Jake had a bunch of fun catching them on a jighead with a trickworm. We only fished a few hours since the GA-GA TECH was coming on and Jake didn't want to miss it. But, we caught them pretty good once we found them. I guess we caught between 10-15 fish. Here is a photo of Jake and some of his fish and Jake holding his biggest fish of the day. The second photo is an eleven pounder and another good one we got at Varner right before it closed. Quote

Super User Tin Posted November 29, 2007 Super User Posted November 29, 2007 Nice job, hopefully your buddies son gets the bass fishing bug. That way you always have a back-up fishing partner. Quote
Randall Posted November 29, 2007 Author Posted November 29, 2007 Love seeing these pics after I whiffed at this same lake that same weekend Randall, you heading out there again this weekend? I'll be the guy with the binoculars watching your every move from the other side of the lake Chris, I told Jake and Roy that you had a tough time out there. Jake said we could have stayed longer and caught more but they had to go watch GA beat Tech. He said that without knowing you were a Tech fan but I got a good laugh out of it. ;D Won't be fishing for a couple weeks since my wife just had another surgery but I will let you know when I am going back.

Stupid UGA fans... Yeah, I was at the game, so no fishing for me on Sat either. Quote
