Me and a couple buddies hit the damn at Chatfield yesterday. I figured I would like to troll some cranks for the sunset feeding. The water was approx. 53 degrees, and we were marking a lot of fish around the 5-10 ft range. I threw on a shallow runner in perch color running about 6 ft down. We made a few passes alond the damn, and as soon as we hit the corner, BAM! I hooked into this monster. We nearly had to turn the boat around to ensure he didn't snap my line. It was a wicked fight between me and this fish that lasted the better part of an hour. . . . . . . .well 45 seconds anyway.
He made the whole night worth it.
Of course after that, my truck broke down at the top of the boat ramp, and I had to call my Dad to come and get us at like 11pm. The truck still sits there and I need to figure a way to get it to the shop, but thats a story for an altogether different post.
Happy fishing to all!
