11/28/09 With the changing weather and an arriving cold front in Central Florida this week fishing was excellent in the first part of the week to slow in the later part. Lake Toho was on fire on Tuesday temperatures were in the 80's and cloud cover. Ted Schrep his son Justin and his work partner of Orlando caught 21 fish up to 7 lbs. in ½ day trip on shiners we used 4 doz. by 10:30 a.m. On Wednesday the Butler Chain was good as well we caught 26 fish in 2 ½ day charters up to 6.8 lbs. on both artificial and shiners. Zoom Super Flukes, sinkos and 10 in. worms in watermellon red and junebug were the trick that day. Walk in Water was slow on Thursday Thanksgiving morning wind came out of the north and we only managed 6 fish up to 3lbs. in the boat although we lost a big one in heavy cover that would have made the day! Friday also had 20 mph wind and temperatures in the 40's that morning so we fished the Butler Chain in ½ day caught 7 fish with the largest weighing 5lbs. Still opening in December! Great fishing!
