Friday 10/07 on St Mary�s Lake

Type: Nontidal
Region: Southern
Location: St. Mary's Lake

On Friday, 10/7, I fished St Mary�s Lake for several hours. I�d planned on heading to the Eastern Shore but just stayed close to home. I caught 12 largemouth bass, two pickerel (biggest 21.5�) a crappie and a bluegill. All on a small spinner bait. Most of the bass were on the small size and were caught in 3 to 8 ft of water. Water temperatures were 62/63 degrees (same as it was on the Potomac yesterday).

There was another angler catching a lot of crappie today too. Throwing a small spinner with a gulp minnow.
