Seen a lot of those boats, but not one pulled in like they were wanting to get on it. Seen a lot of them going to the backs that were across from us. Really neat deal to find them like that. Just a fluke I did. Went in there Sat. evening and there they were. Still there Sun. morning. So glad it worked out. My son had a smallie that went 4.10, his biggest. That was a lot of fun.

Fished club tourney today and ran to aunts creek. Fished one hundred yard stretch all day. My son and I caught 4 keepers each, his weighed 11.61 and mine weighed 12.06. Caught all on jerkbait. WT was 58. Shad abundant where we were with fish chasing.

Fished yesterday from daylight to 2:30. Did not have the same results as you did in the cleat water. Fished swim bait and jerkbait. Caught maybe 8 all day. 4 keepers. Fished KC area.

Fish from aunts Creek to piney Creek water temperatures were 54 to 57 by the end of the day try cranking that did not work out very well went to jerk bait and underspin most all the fish I caught were on a jerk bait fishing flat gravel with some deep water close by or secondary points that were flat gravel probably caught somewhere in the 25 range with 4 keepers lost several good feeling fish but never got to see them so you never know if you had them Foul hooked or was a decent fish no really structure other than just on gravel.

Fish from Kimberling City to aunts Creek for about 5 and a 1/2 hours did not have a stellar day like last weekend just tried to get out do something different caught 10 with 4 keepers all of keepers were caught on a jerk bait megabass plus 1. 3 of the 4 keepers came on consecutive casts off of one flat point all jerk bait fish come off of gravel with just a little bit of rock mixed and all were point oriented. WT was 54-57.

Fish the last 2 days with my son and my brother Had 2 fantastic days of fishing couldn't tell you how many we caught in 2 days all came cranking. For 2 days fished from aunts Creek to Cape fair and back water temps anywhere from 51ﾟ to 55ﾟ could not really get bit on a spinnerbait and could not really get bit on anything flat big fish was caught today my son caught her this afternoon she weighed 6lb 6oz. Caught several keepers both days.

In Joe Bass I didn't hear. Our club was 5.86.

Fished the Joe Bass Saturday and fished my club tournament Sunday. Fished from KC to Shell Knob Saturday, fished the arig to visible trees as I don't have livesvope. Caught a limit that weighed 11.4. Finished 11th. Had my son fishing with me and he caught keeper number 5 with 10 minutes to go. Could not catch them on jerkbait. Fished club Sunday stayed in shell knob area. Caught 10 keepers. Arig for the first 5 then I checked an area with jerkbait caught 2 keeps and culled. Followed that pattern caught 3 more that culled. Finished with 14.80 second in club.

KC to Cow creek

Well this hasn't happened in a while but it had happened before. Not one fish today i zeroed. Had one on early in ice jig. Only bite I had. The jerk alot, nary a bump. Couldn't believe it.

I'll just say this end of the lake is kicking my butt. Only fished for about 4 hours today true deep first and I could not find them where I had been the last couple of outings. Tried a few different areas and nothing deep. Picked up the jerkbait, caught 3. Called it a day after that. WT 46.

Fished for a bit today with my son. Tried deep again. Caught 1 keeper spot and a perch. This deep stuff is not easy and so many lookers gets frustrating. Didn't see a many this time but saw plenty. Just dropped everything I could think of. Not a very good report but it's all I got.

Bill, what pound test and brand are you throwing that RK on. All crank fish i caught at Baxter the other day were on same bank type.

Fished from 8 to 1 strictly to deep fish. Since I'm not good at finding them I went to mill creek and Whites branch. I found fish just here and there and caught 4 with one keeper. I can't count many lookers i had. Very frustrating to see them come up and swim away. Oh well, that's all I got.

Fished from 8 till 3 WT was 49 most everywhere. Went cranking and caught 3 good keeper on it in the wind. Fished from 8 till 3:30. Can't up on some feeding fish on my graph and caught a few on the damaging and spoon. Caught one other on arig. Had 4 keeper total and probably caught 12 . Good day to be out

Thanks Bill I have not fixed yet but need to. It's hard to get away now that I'm living Kimberling-City I love it down here.

That sounds good. Good luck tomorrow. And yes it slowed way down

Fished from 8 till 2 WT was 44-48 depending how far up you went. Caught 8 with 3 keepers all cranking. My son caught all the keepers and most of the 8. Pretty slow for a day I thought would produce s little better. Met Cheesemaster this morning. It was good to talk to you. Good luck when you get to go.

My son came down last night so we could get out today and chase them for awhile. We fished from about 9:30 til 3:00. Caught 12 with 5 keepers. Caught 2 cranking in the back of a creek, both keeper blacks. Did some more cranking with no success. Threw the jerkbait some, no takers. Worked into a different creek and fished a pocket in it, I tied on the dreaded Arig and started throwing up on the top side of the gut of this pocket and slowly reeled it back and caught a keeper spot. From there worked over to a short bluff for more cranking and nothing. Went to another pocket this one was main lake with some cedars on the point, threw the jerk and Arig nothing on the point. My son wanted to eat a sandwich, so I eased into the pocket and sat in the gut, threw up to the top to a group of 3 cedars and bang, caught a good smallie on the Rig. Went to a bluff after that and caught a few more on the Rig, single swim bait and underspin. All in all a good day with my son. WT was about 52 most of the day. Good luck when you get to go. Anyone with a Humminbird Helix Gen 3 that can help with settings please send me a PM. Good luck when you get to go. I attached a pic of the first fish he caught this morning and the smallie I caught on ned yesterday.

Fished from 10-3. Just moved down here this week so my reports will be from this end mostly. WT 53, had 2 bites today. One on jerkbait just pushed it sideways and 3+ smallie on ned. Tried to find a deep bite but I don't know stay I'm doing, found some shad but really nothing with them. I went to creeks looking didn't look main lake babe no idea where to start. Tried cranking like I did at shell knob last week but with little wind didn't happen. Oh well. I'll just keep throwing at them. Good luck when you go.

I'm only guessing but probably Jim Ramsey.

Fished from 9:30-3:30 out of SK. WT was 53 most all day. Started out cranking some flat stuff with no success, then picked up jerkbait and caught a keeper spot and lost another. Moved to another area to look for deep fish, found some shad but nothing with them as far as I could tell but I'm not much of a deep guy. So back to jerkbait and picked up a 17" walleye but no bass. Finally moved to bluffs with RK and started catching. Probably around 20 cranking with 2 more keeper and several fish load up and pull off. Most fish had back hook. Only caught 2 largemouth one was keeper. That's all I have, sure enjoyed the day. Good luck when you get to go. HAPPY holidays to everyone.

Fished from 6-3 yesterday caught a lot of fish, probably 25-30. Only managed 2 keepers. Most fish were caught on spinner, swimbait and wobblehead with finesse worm. Tried deep cranking only caught one short. Lost one good one at the boat on square bill way up kings. All in all good day but what day KGB thr water is bad. Good luck when you get to go.

Great day Sprint.

Shell knob the last 2 days.
