The Barry White Pattern?

Tom and his friends juggled around their busy schedules to put together a trip together this spring on Lake Wallenpaupack.  Tom is no stranger to Legends Outdoors and he really enjoys coming out for some outdoor fun and was anticipating this day for some time.  The day greeted him and his friends with average spring temperatures and a light wind.  The plan was to stick with the pattern and pursue "the potential" that swims in the depths of this legendary lake.  These guys didn't even flinch as they gave the fish a high diet of Keitech Baits and played music during the outing.  The main genre was country, but they mixed in some other music also highlighted by Barry White.  The significance to this artist was that whenever one of his songs was played, one of the anglers would hook into a good sized fish.  Coincidence?  A hefty walleye was brought aboard as shown below in the 7# class.  A giant smallmouth bass took the offering and battled valiantly before being landed and posing for a photo. A myriad of other fish such as pickerel, crappie, and other smallmouth bass all found their way to their presentations and caught on this day making for a solid catch for these three long time friends.  Cigars were smoked, hoagies consumed, snacks eaten, music played, and stories shared aboard the Legends Outdoors pontoon boat on this day.  Tom has seen a variety of weather patterns and conditions during his adventures with us, but the one consistency is that he always has a great time and this would be no different as it was an A+ outing for Tom and his crew!
