Sunday Fishing Report

Thanks!

I fished Everett in that monsoon Saturday at Beaver. It was flat out tough. No A rigs aloud. I caught one keeper for 2.58 on a crankbait early and never caught another fish. 77 out of 138 teams didn’t weigh. The winners had 17.79lbs. Major props to those guys. I am excited about the water coming up and warmer water. Should get good soon. Thanks for your report. 

We were one of the skunked boats.  Tried to go up the creeks above KC and the schools of shad were literally amazing.  I've never seen so many everywhere we went.  It was pretty obvious early on that there was just too much competition for our A-rigs.  We ended up going toward the mud and caught a few shorts on crankbaits and I had a nice fish on a jig come off a few feet from the boat out of net range.  All in all it was as tough of a day as I've soon on TR.  If I wasn't so frustrated by the lack of bites, I'd have really enjoyed seeing the massive schools of bait.  It was unreal and everywhere that we went.  Kudos to you guys for going the right direction and getting a few bites.

And then I come upon this today...https://www.bassmaster.com/jason-christie/tremendously-tough-fishing

Those are this morning on a Spro Phat Fly. 3 shorts and those 2 keeps. 

Mud line from Long Creek has reached the mouth of Big Cedar

Those are some healthy looking fish. Nicely done. 

Spinnerbait bite is already on. Caught five on it Sunday mid-day from steep pockets with stained water. Upper White. Water temp 49-51. One solid 3.5, others all 2-plus. Donna kicked in a solid 2.5 on a jig for a best-five total of 12-13 lbs. Good bite is coming.

Champ & Donna, thanks for the report.

I fished Beaver on Sunday afternoon in the Rocky Branch area and only caught 2. Both were keepers with one being a nice one. Water temps were 45 - 49. I saw high 49’s but no 50’s.   I fished from 2 until about 5:30.
