Our first Bald Eagle sighting.  You have to click to enlarge.  It's almost dead center of the pic perched on branch of the dead tree.

American flag on Crow Island.



Our first short normal weekend of the season.  But a great one!  Perfect weather, great wildlife and a big bass.

Saturday 25th -Started of partly cloudy and 63 F degrees.  Very light southwest wind.  Fished 7:00 a.m - 11:30 a.m.  Fished the Devils Graveyard, Emery Island shoal, Middle Point bay and Dwaynes Island.  Caught 9 bass.  Best was 3 lb 6 oz near M.P.B.  We saw our first Bald Eagle since coming to Black Lake for seven seasons.  It was big and beautiful.  We watched it fly into the Devils Graveyard and perch on a big deak oak tree. 
Fished 7:00 p.m - 8:05 p.m.  Sun is setting much earlier now that we are in late August.  Fished Conger Island and caught 5 bass.  But Denise caught a big hawg!  A nice 4 lb 9 oz largemouth.  It's her new personal best.  14 total bass for the day.  Today's high temp was 89 degrees F.  What a great day!


Sunday 26th - Clear to start, 68 degrees F, light southwest wind.  Fished 7:55 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. Fished at Upper Deep Bay, Devils Graveyard and The Cut.  Caught 9 bass.  Had a couple nice smallmouth bass close to 3 pounds.  They sure do put up a good fight.  Another beautiful day weather wise.  It's really hard to believe how much fantastic weather we have had this year.  Lake water level is still exceptionally low due to lack of rainfall this year.

23 total bass for the weekend.  A Bald Eagle sighting.  And Denise catches her biggest bass ever.  What a AWESOME weekend.  Next week we have a long four day holiday weekend.  Can't wait!  Well, that a wrap folks.  Until next time folks...                 Fish On!
