Wheeler-Wilson

[WTL]

I have been away since friday at wheeler and wilson lakes in extreme northwest alabama, which is one possible site for the 2010 get together although we are a good ways off I think from deciding. I wanted to get some fishing in back where I learned to fish, and also see again whether or not I though this place could handle all of us.

Here are some pictures cause its worth more than me just talkin





Caught the 1st morning way back in a creek on Wilson lake.






Fishing a nearby creek that runs into the lake.


Caught this bass on wheeler flipping heavy wood cover, 1st creek across from the cabins.


Wilson lake sunfish


Wheeler dam. Lots of great fishing right here at the dam, this place turns out 5-6 pound smallmouth every day.




Caught wading a creek, theres some very good wade fishing right in the area. Smallmouth and largemouth, great place for flyfishing or getting a few east bass.


I saved the best for last.This is my new PB smallmouth caught yesterday evening at Wilson lake on a strike king crankbait in 6 feet of water near a submerged concrete lock. Weight was easily 5 pounds, and my thumb after handlinging didn't have mere bass thumb abbrasions, no sir...I was bleeding under the nail from handling this bad boy.
