[quote hulapopper]great job smartweed i must be out of the loop no idea what lure you were using . you retired in the right place ! would be awesome to have that fishery so close to home. i bet you catch a hawg soon ![/quote]
I can't really say I retired here, as I moved to my place 53 years ago. Back then I lived on a gravel washboard road, and Lake Lowell was a duck hunters paradise. We also had a terrific population of pheasants. I even shot a couple of deer along the lake shore, back when we had a season. Now they just kill them with cars, the ducks are 10% of what they were, and there are few pheasants. However, the bass fishing is better than it was back then, and we have lots of valley quail.
