Chautauqua 11/26


Recommended Posts

Hit Chautauqua yesterday as the musky season draws to a close(man how depressing is that!)and what an beautiful day for the end of November. Water temps in the 43-44 degree range and visibility was great 10 feet plus. The day started out kind of slow had 6 or 7 follows by noon with no takers , shortly after noon I hooked up with a upper 40’s fish and lost it before I could get her to the net(heartbreaker). That first fish I lost was really starting hurt as the day went on with more follows and none were willing to take , as the sun was on it’s way down and time running out(for the day and the season)I headed back to a spot we had fished a few times during the day and kept seeing fish but no takers. Just as the sun dropped below the horizon wham , finally put one in the net which made me feel a little better about the first fish.. Now with daylight fading fast but not dark yet I figured we had time for a few more cast and wham fish number 2 in the net.

Chautauqua has always had a very pronounced first light and last light bite , there has be a number of times when at the end of a fishless day between sunset and dark the whole day changes. Would like to get out Monday or Tuesday for the last trip of the year depending on the weather
