7/14/18 Sheffield Lake area

[gqbeagle]

I also fished out of Sheffield Lake today but was not on the water until 8am. Went due north to 50ft depth and set up with worm harnesses and inline weights. As FUBAR1 said, the fish were all over the water column but most of my fish came just off the bottom or around 30ft. All fish were 17-18" except one which I released. After I had caught 4, one of my planer boards had the flag go down and was kind of juking back and forth. I looked away for a minute to move a pole and when I turned around the planer board was no where to be seen and the pole was completely bent over. Once I got the planer board back above water and unclipped, started to reel the fish in and could tell it was large. Got it in the boat and measured and weighed it then released him back into the lake. Fish was 29" and 8lbs. Attempted to attach a picture but was not able. After that excitement, went on to catch two more 18 inchers and went in.
