Fish24/7 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 fished 4 places today, put a lot of miles on the truck but nothing to show for it, walked 100's of yards of shoreline and caught 1 stinking short bass on a crappie minner lol. Tried the buffet in my tackle box while I watched my bobber in my peripheral vision. Although I did meet a nice fella who was tight lining for cats and we talked fishing for a couple hours while my minnow drug my cork up and down the bank like a champ!! He never had a bite that I saw. Did see 3 pairs of Bald eagles, a golden eagle, 2 ospreys and a sand piper. Carp are really going to town now. Might try it again tomorrow if I can slip away. snagged in outlet 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob P Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 It's been tough. Very sporadic bites yesterday and today. One on a Jig 20fow, lost one on a crank shallow. Water from 56-59. Hopefully Friday is better.😁 Fish24/7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish24/7 Posted April 20, 2018 Author Share Posted April 20, 2018 talked to a guy who bass fished all afternoon lower/mid lake Wed, and yesterday , said he caught some spots and smallies, had several keepers, hardly any largemouth. Had to keep moving around .give it a week or 2 and they should stay put. I found some decent largemouth staging last week , dying to get back out there to see if more have moved in.I'm waiting on a buddy to come back so we can use his truck to launch the boats, my pickup is out of commission for now ;( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish24/7 Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 went again yesterday afternoon, thought I could find some crappie tucked away in the back of this little cove I can get to by foot. Well, I'm still carrying around the same 3 dozen minnows I bought this week if that tells you anything Did see 2 lm buck bass on 2 beds though, so the back of that cove is pretty warm. I haven't talked to anybody who's caught any crappie recently but I'm sure somebody is. Wonder if some have already spawned?? usually when they move up I can see them when I'm creeping along the bank, did see some males on beds when I had the boat out several days ago but it was only a few and they were spooky as heck like they just got there. I can go again this eve, will report after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish24/7 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 today was a little better, went back for a couple hours to the same spot as yesterday, caught 6 small lm bass on a small grub, 1 big ol' gill, an 11" walleye, and 2 big crappie on minnows. Those 2 bass I saw yesterday were still on their beds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
