I fished with my bass club at JangSung Dam on Sunday. It was the first time I have ever fished that lake and the first time I have my boat in the water since March. I had added a new livewell system to my boat so I was hoping it wouldn’t sink :lol:
It was a tough day. First off, it was damn cold, then my Suzuki motor wouldn’t start and I noticed a lot of fuel leaking everytime I tried to start her up, so I gave up and just used my trolling motor. Then things seemed to pick up….I caught a nice 15 inch bass almost straight away, but that was it for a while. The water level was wayyyyy down but the water was still upto 30 foot deep. (This lake is like a smaller version of Andong). Long story short…..I caught a few fish, mostly dinks. Some of the guys from my club caught some very bass. Once the water levels come back up, this lake will be an awesome place to fish, and it may be as good as Andong.
Here is the smallest fish of the day……I won a prize for this
The good news about the low water levels is, someone has built an awesome boat ramp, the best I’ve ever seen in Korea.
And finally, a couple of shots of my little ex-foldy boat










That is a nice boat ramp! We need one of those at the river up here
Way to go Steve, and what Nomad said on the boat ramp!! They’re “supposedly” building a big nice one down at Andong too…
Wow what a nice lake and boat ramp. Do they have adequate trailer parking area there? The only thing is I would hate to accidently back off the side of the ramp. That would really increase the pucker factor.
Now everyone is talking about the American economy and eclections, nice to read something different. Eugene
Hey Eugene…..you will only find fishing here
Steve, do you have directions to this lake?
Rob,
Here ya go http://tinyurl.com/5wqa4w
Looks like you could follow 25 all the way down, but it’s a ride.
Thanks Nomad! I think I may have finally found a reason to go visit my inlaws in Gwanju!!!!! LOL
No problem…
Nice map and site Nomad. Yep, the lake is right off the highway 25.
