CCMoore -Meteor ,Northern Specials ,Secret Obssesion





                                                            New baits- old dreams
Starting the 2013 season was a constant wait for something ,from baits to decent weather ,to free time from work and family obligation .Finally the shipment from CCMoore arrive ,the weather make a turn to normality ,and at work I have two weeks with an easy schedule .
Make same preparation for a 36 hours of testing new baits CCMoore -Meteor and the all ready famous range of pop ups -Secret Obsession and Northern Specials .Hit the rod Monday morning ,direction Long Sault on the majestic St.Lawrence river .The area that I want to fish is in a very big bay ,looks more like a big lake , 1,8 to 2,2 m the depth ,patches of weeds and sandy bottom .After a 30-40 min. of feature finding with the marker ,I settle for two areas ,one in 2m. of water ,close to a weed bed and same snags ,70 m distance ,second, close in 40 m , in 1,8 m depth on a small plateau .Start baiting the two areas with a mix of boilies Meteor and a mix of pellets -Meteor ,hemp ,csl .On the plateau i put a pop up rig with a Secret Obsession ,and at long range a snowman -Meteor topped with Northern Specials . Pour a coffee and start the waiting game .The water is still cold for this time of year ,just 14 C. ,and no singht of movement .I new that on this bay , the fish will start showing just after noon .By 14 PM. come the first take ,on the long range rod ,a nice 14 pd-er common . Till the night had 5 more takes with fish 15 to 22 pd ,most on the long range rod .By 11,30 I take the rods out ,and went for a few hours of sleep .4 o-clock in the morning ,the rods in, and a few spombs of baits out went . Till noon I had 8 more takes ,the biggest 32 pd-er ,plus a bonus of a 15 pd. mirror .For St.Lawrence is very rare to catch mirrors ,last year in the all season I had just one . The big fish come on the close in rod CCMoore -Secret Obsession pop up .Very good session ,looking forward for the next one .

CCMoore is more, must be change to, CCMoore is more and fast





                                     
Well , things happening when you do not expect them .I went today in the morning to map a new area that I want to fish in mid summer .Is a deep 4,5 to 5 m channel with big fish in ,but a bit difficult ,from June on is full of weeds . I have a new sonar that help finding the spots ,and in the 2-3 hours of mapping the area ,I put in a rod with a live system pop up and a small bag of pellets . In the next 30-40 min. the mapping goes very well ,the sonar gives me 3 very interesting spots ,two plateau of 3,7 m in a 5 m deep ,and a hole of 5,6 m . I did not pay to much attention on the rod ,deep water ,and cold 12 C. ,did not give me hope for a run. But the unexpected happen ,a fast run put me in a battle with a carp After a few minutes slip the net on a beautiful 16 pd-er .Look like the live system boilies and pellets did a very good job .I stay for 40 minute more, to finish the map ,in this time had one more run with a 14 pd-er .What is funny , the sonar show just 3-4 fish in this area ,and 2 of them come to the live system boilies .I can-t wait till next weekend to have a proper session with big expectations from live system .So CCMoore , for me is fast and more .
