  3. Glad your ok, sorry it happened, it's a shame what some people will do.
  4. Put in at mutton at 9am and worked main arms and cuts up to Orleans Trail. C-rig watermelon red lizard caught over 40 with 17 keeps biggest around 3lbs. Lots of males, didn't see any beds and with fullmoon Sunday should be really good as the females move up. Fish were in 8-14fow Tight lines
  5. Area has had very little pressure, rarely see a boat in the area I've been fishing have had it to myself for the most part. Catching mostly pre-spawn fish.
  6. Try c-rig lizard in 6-12fow in main lake pockets and arms with chunk rock pea gravel mix. Been real good this last week for me. Good luck and have fun.
  7. I found my fish in groups last night, once I got bit would have a flurry then nothing until I found them again. Same for you or were your fish scattered?
  8. Put in at 7:30 and had 3 before dark on c-rig lizard with one nice brownie in Indiana. Went to point 2 area cuts and had 15 with 7 keeps mostly chunk brownies on 1/2oz homemade black purple football jig fish where in 8-12 fow on backside of points. Had trifecta and 1 big rock bass.had several spawned out skinny blacks. Biggest was a 3.89 brownie. Water temps 57.2- 58.9 Tight lines
  9. Put in at 9am with my son water temp 57.2 Worked main lake arms and bigger cuts up to Oleans trail,temp there 54.8 Found fish in 7- 12 fow and game on. Chunk rock and pea gravel mix held most. All fish came on c-rig watermelon red lizard and watermelon red baby brushhog with a 3ft liter. 58 total with 13 keeps biggest 3lbs. Mostly males but it should get real good with the females moving up with the fullmoon on its way. Tight lines.
  10. C-rig your favorite soft plastics and 5/16 brown jig in creek arms and secondary points
  11. That's a fine act of kindness I applaud you. Pay it forward. You're the man
  12. I'm parcel to translucent colors in clear water and dark colors in stained
  13. Put in at 8 with my son greeted to a cold wind and 44 air temp. Concentrated on main lake arms point 2 area and found the fish in 6-12 fow. We fished till 2:30 and ended with 34 and 10 keeps. More blacks than yesterday and a lot fewer brownies. Both of us using cr he caught his on watermelon red baby brush hogs and me on watermelon candy lizard. He put it on dad again had 19 and 6 of our keeps. I had big fish 4 pound black. Great time together. Tight lines
  14. Had to pull in a slip for about 40 minutes luckily no hail around me. Great report and nice black!
  15. Put in at daylight temp 57.3 work spawning and pre spawn areas from ramp to point 2 and back. The rock is alive and well. Caught 53 total with 24 keeps all on cr zoom 6in watermelon lizard. 8 blacks and about 50/50 spots and brownies. Had a blast clear dam area water makes it fun watching them come in. Most fish where in 8-12 fow and just crushing the lizard, loaded up at 7:30 and they were still biting. One of my best days in long time ? Tight lines
  16. Put in around 7:30 started around twin bridge area and worked to point 5. Cr lizard with 2ft leter good bite but mostly males. When I came to wind blown points threw phantom wart and caught several. Ended up with over 30 but only 3 keeps. Had fun warmest water I found 59.6 put it on the trailer 2pm tiered of fighting the wind. Tight lines.
  17. I bet it was rolling out there, good report I'll be cr lizard tomorrow out of mutton
  18. Awesome report! Nothing like fishing with your kids.
  19. So true I tend to mostly fish for stagers once the crowds arrive. Those fish are overlooked and not pressured. Have been fishing the lake since 81 and have learned to avoid the bank and concentrate on fish with different baits that many never use. Has really helped my results over the years
  20. Nice stringer and great job! Thanks for the report and pics
  21. Think you're right, I rarely throw to the bank cause the banks are hammered so hard and now with the crowds I stay off and try to concentrate on staging fish that most don't fish for. Today rarely seen anybody fishing where we were and if we did they we're throwing to the bank. I read all your reports and respect your results, you are a great fisherman!
  22. Didn't catch anything on the bank, all came in spawning pockets but they are staging in the area we fished today
  23. Of the 30 only 5 females, fished almost to birch to avoid the crowds. Monday had my neighbor and I had more than half females
  24. Put in at 8 and had to park in the overflow parking, word is out on the crappie bite. More boats out today than on this past weekend. Fished off the beating path and found em in 4-6 fow caught 2 nice limits with my son all on road runner very light bite, had to be a line watcher. Caught many by just seeing line switch. Also had 2 nice walleye. Great day on the water with my son. Tight lines.
  25. Way to figure them out and thanks for the report.
