Hammer time

Congrats that's a dandy, thanks for sharing the pic. Beautiful bass!

Hey guys just drop the subject and have fun in the great outdoors that God gave us and be nice to each other. If you don't have anything positive to say then stay silent

Awesome how you adapted to the weather and made the most of your trip. Thanks for the report and pics

Nice black!

Thanks for the report and the pic. Under lights? Jigs or minnows?

Thanks Jim and Slab, had great day on the water and I give most all my fish to my mom and dad to enjoy

Merc 1997 you and I are the same page, yesterday years holes for huge blacks in the dam area are now brownie dominant.

Put in at 7:30 h20 temp 63.76 light rain falling. Fished first 2 hours for bass main lake points c-rig lizard 8-15 fow caught 14 with 2 keeps. Went to spawning cuts above Birch fished 1/8oz road runner with crystal shad trailer in 13-15 fow. Caught 12 keeper crappie 6 shorts 5 short walleye 1 6lbs carp, 1 channel cat and 3 big white bass. Went back to main lake points caught 18 more bass with 2 more keeps on c-rig lizard. Loaded up at 4:30 Tight lines

Great report! Nice brownie, top water is about to explode.

Merc 1997, I agree with you since the fish kill I catch them pre-spawn and in the fall when they move up other than that a few here and there day fishing. I night fish the dam area tons because of the largest population of brownies and most nights pic up a few that move up to feed. I believe the spawn is over and the blacks are deep in the dam area but will feed up soon. I should start catching a few a night soon.

Put in 7pm h2o temp 66.74 that in mind started on main lake points. C- rig lizard in 8-15fow had 7 brownies with 3 keeps and a 18in eye first eye I've ever caught in the dam area and on the lizard blew me away. After dark same type banks with homemade 1/2oz black/purple football jig with black/blue 5in twin tail grub. Brownies were eating big time caught over 25 but only 4 keeps. Odd thing was never caught a black and only 2 short spots. Loaded up 1:30. Tight lines

Great report and nice pics

I think guys like you who have caught a trout on the Rock should belong to a exclusive club. Have caught most species over the years but never a trout. Any pointers?

Super clear, 59.4-63.8 temp

Fished today with Sac River Jim, put in at 7:15. Had a fatastic day, we caught over in 60 bass together c-rig lizard shakey head and underspin. 9 keepers and I lucked in to a 5.34 walleye on c-rig lizard. Main lake points and cuts 6-12 fow. Memorable trip with a great guy! Tight lines.

Very nice brownie! Amazing on the trout,good report and pics!

Put in at 39 bridge 2:30, headed up the Kings started on main lake points deep with a half ounce football jig caught 3 short kentuckies, water temp 69.9. Decide to leave and went up the white to the owl creek area, water temp 67.3. Tied on a deep little n, first cast,16" walleye. Went down channel swings with the same crankbait caught 3 nice blacks and a couple short spots. Left went down a bank that I normally dI good on post spawn, first cast, SLAM. Thought I had an 8 pound largie played him or three minutes finally saw him and it was a walleye as big as my arm! Seen the boat made one last run and broke my line. Tied on a 5x crankbait and on back to back casts caught a 19" and a 23.5" walleye, and two more shorts down the same bank. Went to the mouth of the Kings big main lake gravel point, found a school of spots on the football jig all shorts, loaded up at dark. Great trip. Tight lines.

I know that there is a few bad apples out there but try your best to overlook those and enjoy the great outdoors, life is short so enjoy while you can.

I Have a original 23 pitch tempest in like new condition what should I ask for it?

Nothing campares to taking your kids and family fishing, makes for awesome memories!

Started at 7:30 and caught 6 before dark c-rig lizard one nice brownie. Lots of slim floating everywhere. After darkness fell couldn't find em fished till 1:30 and only caught 4 shorts, tuff night for me.

Used to split shot years ago and lost way too many fish. You nick 8lbs test a few times now you got 4lbs. Come post spawn I use same set up and throw finesse worms and turd worms they don't mind the 15lbs liter and I can muscle em in. Mostly throw football jigs post spawn and all summer with 20lbs floro. That's my preference.

C-rig set up 7ft6in heavy action rod 7to1 baitcaster 17lbs fluro main line 15lbs mono liter 1/2oz weight
