Fished the early AM with my Brother in-law, using float and eggs. We didn't start fishing until around 6AM, when we could finally see our floats. First drift through the hole for me, resulted in a bobber down and a 10lb buck bonked. Very next cast, bobber down again in the same exact spot as before. After a little tug of war, bonked a nice 12lb hen. Not too long after, my Brother in-law finally connects on a float down, nearly getting schooled because his drag was set too loose. After tightening up the drag, he was able to bank and bonk a bright mid-teener buck. Following a spell of swing and misses, he was able to finish off his limit with a nice 9lb hen.
The action was pretty fast paced, we were done by 6:30AM. The flavor of the eggs, didn't seem to matter. We tried all of the cures I had brought along, and they all got bit. The key, is getting the float set at the correct depth. Trying for a repeat tomorrow morning.

I just found this site or I would of posted earlier. I have fished the skok now three times and got fish twice. The first day nothing and I was bummed out after fishing all day. The second time after hours I finally got a nice hen and it was great. Until I got back to my car and someone had backed into my car and caused almost 1800 dollars damage. The third time I went was a good day . I got both of my fish. I will be going back soon.
