Late Night Visitor & Clear Lake Follow Up

Post by clum553946 »

So, I was fishing last night at Clear Lake by myself when I heard a strange noise in the back of the boat. Knowing there isn’t supposed to be anything back there, it startled The heck out of me. Turns out an otter came on board to say hi! Lol! He was totally calm, waited for me to get my phone out of the box, take a pic, then ambled off! He may have wanted some Red Bull!

By the way fishing was good again last night. Totally a jig bite as they were off of the blades (& everything else.) Managed 21 fish, best was 5 lb 11 oz with the best five going 25 lb 9 oz. The size overall was better, I caught 3 over 5 & a lot of 4’s & only 2 or 3 dinks. They’re up tight & stacked in one place & are absent from another. I started at 9pm & came off at 3am as I was tired but could have put more fish in the boat if I stayed later! It was a very interesting & entertaining evening!

I’ve nite fished Clearlake as much as anybody over the last 15 years and I’ve never seen or heard of that happening. It’s starting to get into that time of year where it can be epic. Cool pic! Larry where u been hiding at?
