Late Monday morning I received an e-mail asking about a quick fishing trip to shoot some video for a web project. Since the weather was sunny and warm I agreed and loaded my fishing equipment. Once at the boat launch on Megunticook Lake in Camden though I was nervous. It is getting late in the season and the water temperatures are getting low. Maybe the fish would not cooperate.
Since I was a little early I spent a few minutes fishing the cove near the launch and my concerns were quickly eliminated. I managed a couple of nice largemouth bass after only a few casts. When the camera showed up and we headed down the lake the fishing was very good. With the warm day it was a most pleasant outing. We managed a few fish, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and trout.
Hopefully they captured some video that I hope to be able to post on the web page in the near future.
The big news is that there is still some excellent open water fishing available. Most of the lakes and ponds in this part of the state are open to catch and release fishing until the end of November. I plan to get out and take advantage at least a few times before then. Of course the dogs are sad to hear that they are not first on my list for fun outings.
