Caught this on upper Bull Shoals while walleye fishing. What causes this? My guess is it's leftover from a fungal infection?

There are a bunch of hybrids at kk Island currently. Look for the cold front to fire them up and bust on top. Sunrise and sunset

No, rain water and run off control that. Rain isn't steady or necessarily cold enough to keep creek flows and temps consistent enough for a healthy, naturally occurring spawn ......

Crappie are on the banks! Find a cove and fish the banks! Any color seems to work, but i would recommend something with a little chartreuse mixed in. Bite turns on an hour before dark, but they are biting all day. They just move to 6-8 ft during the day. 1-3ft right off tthe bank at dark. Tons of limits being caught. Paddlefish will be up in Osceola. Drag treble hooks for them. Hybrids are scattered and not grouped up yet, so i would recommend trolling flicker shad on humps and rocky points.

I have seen those as well on my graph. Very isolated and not many. I think they are Crappie or yellow perch. I got into a school of yellow perch back in November and caught 14 using minnows.

You passed the test! Me and Cody are really good friends and fish together. I already know where you guys were fishing. I was just doin some virtual fishing......... and he is not lying. We have had boats come over and fish within 6 feet of us when we are on hybrids.

What area did you catch the hybrids?

Trout are a stocked non native commodity. I do believe in conservation and taking care of a fishery, but you and many others on this forum go above and beyond that with your fishing at taneycomo. Don't be discouraged. Think of all the ones you have released successfully and keep on fishing. The fish i fish for(see pics for reference) have a much higher mortality rate than yours, but i still keep some to eat and share with friends knowing they will be replenished.

Very broad, but will catch you fish. Blue cats, drift cut shad on 10-15ft ish flats Crappie will be in trees and bluffs probably 8-10ft ish down Hybrids, always moving but look for them busting top water at sunrise and sunset and throw a spook. If you know what they like on the graph you can try bouncing spoons in 10-15ft of water once you find them, but live shad is the best way to catch them in this heat. They will likely be down lake on points and humps that top out around 10-15ft. Can also throw paddle tails with 1/2 oz heads. Any color works as long as it's white or chartreuse, lol

I am following you now. I cannot comment to that as i have never caught one like that, but am very interested in the topic. Please try and snap a photo next time you catch one. I agree with you that the stocked hybrids are probably not completely sterile like they say and have read a study that states there is some probability that there is some very limited reproduction by them. I also left out the part about on the particular scouting mission in the Gravois when i caught the pictured fish, i may have wandered to the very back where i locked eyes with an older silver haired man in a green metal boat with a fly rod fishing the small hump and channel that goes under the small bridge........
-
This was the same trip once i located the hybrids. Caught several but they were substantially smaller than what i find in Truman, which surprised me.

Now you can put the coffee on. Incorrect, hybrids have a split tongue patch same as striped bass and they have been stocked recently. Mdc began stocking "leftover" stripers in LOZ when they finished their Bull Shoals stockings each year. This would have began in 2013. People catch a couple every year up at Truman dam during the spring run. There are some 20+lbers caught, very rarely albeit, in haha tonka usually in the middle of winter. I caught several "stockers" like the one pictured last summer in the Gravois while looking for hybrids.
-
Hah! Well you would have been correct except I read wrench's post wrong. After reading his first post he is correct. The two pictured in his 1st post are hybrids. The two fish pictured in the post i quoted are pure striped bass.
-
Incorrect. Those are both stocked pure striped bass. Look at the depth in relation to their length.

@Phil Lilley what water temps are you seeing after these hot days? Any change?
