NateFollmer Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 Finally got to take the NuCanoe out this year! Took my little brother Owen along with me (he's 8). We only got to fish for about an hour until a storm came through and pushed us off the lake, but as soon as I got everything packed up, the storm cleared I didn't do much fishing because I was teaching him how to cast a spinning reel, but he caught a nice sized pickerel on a Tabu Whiptail Worm in Green Pumpkin. Video of that will be coming soon I saw some decent bass on beds, but didn't cast to them (I don't like bed fishing very much and usually only do it if the bass is a biggin'). If that's your thing though, they are all over on the flats by the dam, all the way across to the old boat launch. I'll probably go back up sometime this week and see if I can get a good jig bite. Here's a still from the video. That worm is 4 inches, so I'm guessing the fish was around 15... Quote
Super User bassfisherjk Posted May 1, 2011 Super User Posted May 1, 2011 Nice picture Nate.I hope to get over to Colyer this year. Quote
NateFollmer Posted May 1, 2011 Author Posted May 1, 2011 Great lake, it's small but packed with fish. It's a great 'training' lake because it has many different types of environments. One sides grass flats with steep drops, then you have the point and timber, pads, rocks at the dam... it's all compact into a nice little area too. Quote

Sounds like a great little fishin hole Nate, like the looks of that Nucanoe to. That's a sweet water craft! Quote
NateFollmer Posted May 1, 2011 Author Posted May 1, 2011 Its covered in my moaner stickers That thing tracks great for how wide it is, I was really surprised. The only negative I have to say about the width is it brings more water into the boat from the paddle. Quote
