Nitro 750

All of them are funny right there.

Sounds like a fun day on the lake, thanks for the report.

Glad you had a good time on the lake. Tournaments can make fishing tough for some reason.

Thanks for the report, nice pics. It has been pretty tough on the lake this past week, for your first time on the lake you did good.

Good job,. it sounds like you guys had a great time. Thanks for the report and pics.

Good fish, thanks for the report.

Great job Quill.

Good job on the crappie.

That is a nice smallie!!!

Your are welcome Bobby, I'm glad that my report helped someone. I could not tell you how many times the reports on this site has help me catch fish.

Good fish, thanks for the detailed report.

Champ I am with you, I really thought I could get a top water bite going, but I guess that is what I get for thinking. I left the spilt shot rig in the rod box for 2 hours, I knew once I picked it up that would be all I would be throwing. Hammer that is my exact setup for the spilt shot rig. I agree with you it hard to beat dragging the doctor around.

Dave thanks for all of your reports and pics. Sounds like you had a good day. The water color in the dam area is pretty bad also.

Launched at State Park at about 6:00 this morning. I headed to Beardsly, started out with a Whopper Plopper and a Red Fin. Threw the top water for almost an hour and did not even have a sniff. Switched to a swimbait and did not have any luck on that. I tried a War Eagle spinnerbait and caught a 12 inch smallmouth and had a couple other hits, switched to a 6 inch Yum green pumpkin texas rigged worm and had no love on it. I wanted to try some different things before I switched to the spilt shot rig. After about 2 hours of fishing I had the 1 smallie to show for it. I broke out the spilt shot rig with a green pumpkin fish doctor. The first cast was a keeper spot, ended the day with 14, 10 smallies and 4 spots, with 4 of them being keepers and the others were 12 to 14 inches. Also had 1 goggleye. I had the boat setting in 25 feet of water and casting to the bank. Some bites were right on the bank and some were right at the boat. Water temp. was 66. It seems like I always have something to do when the weather is nice and the fish is biting. Off the water by 10:00.

I telling you Dave that fish really likes you and thinks that you are special!!!

Quill sounds like you had all you could handle with that HAWG, I would guess it at 9lbs to 9.5lbs.

That is a nice bass, thanks for the pics and report.

That is just to close!!!!

Hidee Ho Neighbor!!!

I think his eyes was bigger than his stomach!!!!

That is good!!!

Which one is the swimbait?

That is a chunky spot. Great pics thanks for the report.

Champ no she is not, just doesn't want people to know that she is married to someone that looks like me!!!! I guess we are not certified photographers when I downloaded the pics to the computer we noticed that we had the fish up to high.

But does he wear his jersey as well as KVD.
