Quebec Fishing Reports
More BruisersMay 15, 2004
Jim & Jim were back again today for some more bronzeback action once more. The morning air was 64 & the water was 61 degrees. The wind was absolutely insane today! Light S winds increasing, then dying by noon. They then swung around to the N/W and cooled the air by 2:00 PM. The cold air mass really shifted the bite from shallow to deep water and then down to a crawl. We caught fish in the shallows in the morning then in 15 to 25 feet in the afternoon. A storm came in by 3:00 PM and with it winds, rain & thunder. Off we went! Over 50 bass were caught today under extreme conditions. All things considered, a great day!!
Big BruisersMay 14, 2004
Fished with Jim & his nephew, Jim today and they had a ball! The morning temps were 65 degrees and the water temp was 48 degrees. Damn cold night! The winds were from the South at 5 to 10 then increased to 10 to 20 and died off completely by late afternoon. Over 100 bass caught today up to & over 5 pounds. Jerkbaits seemed to work the best with most of the fish coming off of deep edges. There were 3 key spots that were responsible for the bulk of the fish today. Many other places had fish as well! An above average day, finally!
Double HeadersMay 11, 2004
Fished with Bobby & his friend on Memphremagog again today. The morning air temps were 60 degrees and the water was in the low 50s. It was a sunny day with S/W winds 10 to 20 gusting to 30 mph by the late afternoon. They caught between 50 & 75 bass, both smallmouth & largemouth up to 5 pounds. Most of the fish were caught on Jerk-Baits & Fin-S baits. Many double headers happened during the day, as you can see by the picture. Excellent day overall!
