five lakes groton Fishing Report

Two Hours At Five Lakes

Left the house at around 6 and arrived at five lakes about 10 min later. The solunar plot looked great for sunset so off i went. I had not used my new dobyns DX743 so i wanted to spend some time with her. My luck lately at breaking off fluorocarbon due to my crap knot resulted in me fishing strait 20 lb sonic braid. From the way it went i don't think these fish minded so much and i was throwing into and the edge of the pads so it worked out great. I was using a BPS stick o worm the 5 inch version in watermelon red. The hook was a 2/0 gamy wacky hook. I have had some issues with dropping fish at this lake due to the trees not allowing a great hookset and none got away today. The island produced all but one of the fish, but all were in or along the pads. I took off at 8 due to the best part of the area being fished and the hordes of mosquitoes eating me alive. I will not go back without bug spray and recommend you dont either. I must have been bit 100 times no joke.
