The Frontier sports Fishing Report July 24, 2014 According to the Frontier Sports Fisherman’s Guide calendar, fish activity looked like it was going to be minimal to nonexistent for last weekend and the three or four days after. Unfortunately, this proved to be correct for most anglers that I’ve talked to. Dark, threatening skies of green, purple and even a weird brown purported thunder storms could appear at any time. This coupled with occasional heavy wind gusts shut the Walleye down and the Crappie as well refused to bite. The only fish that took any notice of my lures were Rock Bass. I’ve seen this same scenario many times in weather like this. Unfortunately there is rumored to be an age old curse connected with this fish. THE CURSE of the DREADED RED EYE! According to legend, when you catch a Rock Bass, three fish that you want to catch are mysteriously subtracted from your total for the trip. Well, Sunday and Monday night, I caught so many Rock Bass, and that was all I caught, that if the curse is indeed true, I probably shouldn’t go fishing for the rest of the year. It’d be a waste of time. They were so anxious to make me miserable; I even hooked several in the back! While I was busy catching a boatload of Rock Bass, I stopped to take photos of the strange and eerie sky’s that occurred both nights. In the long run it really doesn’t matter. Curse or no curse, this weekend you’ll find me out dragging crankbaits in my favorite spots trying to make up for last week. After all you can’t catch fish, no matter what kind, if you don’t go!
