Rainy Day Bass
I was determined to hit the lake before the approaching rain this weekend. I bought a sub on the way up to Gilmanton and promptly wolfed it down in order to get to the lake in time. To a certain degree it paid off. I went back to the shore spot that I hit up Memorial Day weekend and managed to pull in one bass. I woke up today and found that the rain had stopped so I quickly biked down to the lake for one last shot, pulling up two more bass. Looks like I'm never going back to the dam!

- Bait Details: I used those blue lizards again in this shallow area. They always seem to produce well in this lake one way or the other.
