It sounds like you guys know a lot more about the lake than my fishing buddy and I. Anybody willing to give up some spots that will produce to a couple guys that are just trying to catch a few fish and have a good day on saturday? There's a very likely chance that I won't ever fish Pomme ever again after the tournament saturday. I just like Stockton a lot better because I know the lake better.

We ran all over the lake looking for beds and everywhere that looked like a great spawning pocket was completely covered in carp that were spawning

Well Sunday was the first time I have ever visited Pomme De Terre and I can't say I had a great day on the water. Put in at nemo camp ground around 7 and headed down the river to hit a couple coves that I had got some tips to fish. Pulled out 4 fish in the first cove flipping black and blue jigs with a sweet beaver trailer. We threw everything we had at em and I mean everything and those were the only 4 bass we caught all day. No keepers. Water below the nemo bridge was stained and around 61 degrees. Tried to get out of the wind later in the day but every good looking cove we pulled up on that had pea gravel was covered in spawning carp. Headed back Saturday for the Mercy Hospital Co-worker fishing tournament. I don't have very high expectations but who knows what will happen. Did catch a keeper walleye so I guess the day wasn't a total waste. Thought we might get a good idea of what to do next saterday but just seemed like nothing was producing. Have the bass already spawned? Any advice is appreciated.

That's an awesome catch. Looks like he was barely hooked

Hi there, I'll start by saying I'm new to the forum, but from what I've read it's a great place! I'm originally from Springfield but now live in KC for school. A good buddy of mine I used to work with asked if I'd fish a co-worker tournament with him on the 25th at Pomme and I couldn't turn down an opportunity to get out on the water. Neither of us have ever fished Pomme so I feel completely out of my elements there. We are going to make a trip up there the weekend before the tournament to try and locate some spots to key in on for the following weekend. I believe he said we are launching from Nemo. Does anybody have any suggestions or willing to help out a couple young guys that love to fish. Everything I've heard as of right now is that they are biting jerk baits and wiggle warts, but as to where I have no clue. Any advice is greatly appreciated and if any of you all are fishing in the Mercy Hospital Co-worker tournament good luck to you.
