Luv the videos. Keep up the good work. I used to fish West Lake Toho all the time but haven’t been for quite some time because of all the hydrilla. Last time I went wasn’t much fun. Spent most of my time running around looking for some open water but everything was choked out with all of the grass. I haven’t been back since. Watched your video with the guy talking about plans to start managing the hydrilla again. Too bad they let it go this long and get so out of control. It’s a shame what has happened to our lakes. Sure not what they were 45 years ago. Glad to see you using CPF Lures. Chuck makes good stuff. Been using CPF Lures since they came out. It’s good to support the local guys. Good luck on the water.

@TilsonsGuideService
@TilsonsGuideService Ай бұрын
@@angelmarrero5498 good question; I don’t know that there is an optimal pressure. I can tell you that fish in general don’t like a rising barometer. They feed better and act a little more relaxed under a falling barometer or stable pressure. When a front pushes through the barometer begins to climb and that tends to shut them off, especially in shallower lakes like Toho.
