Yes, what Bassmeister says, you've just got to get out there, that being said, for me personally August and September are usually very tough months on Beaver, I probably won't be out on it again until late September at the earliest. Jaxfishin - there was a good bite in the larger BV lakes on Keitechs a couple of weeks ago which was the last time I was out. 3.3 Keitechs on 1/4 oz heads, mid lake areas. Get out at daybreak and look for fish chasing shad on top, toss the Keitech at them or you can slow troll them too.

Courtesy dock at Eagle Rock is on the beach.

You can order wax worms and have them delivered, but the delivery time may not fit depending on how long you are there.

Thanks for the update on the gills, I have a few things to take care of, but hope to be on the water later this week. Going to be bringing some redworms and maybe some crawlers too. Do any of you get find any redears around those gills?
-
Congrats on a great trip! That really is an amazing number of walleye on Table Rock, or any lake that you don't need a float plane to get to.
-
Yep, Happy 75th my friend! You still get around pretty good for an old feller. 😜

Yeah same here, I'm just too far away. You might want to post your request in the White river section, could be some of the guys that are local to the White may not see this in this forum.

Torrential rain and I’m stupid

Glad to hear you made it out OK, part of the outdoors lifestyle is that sometimes a person can get caught in some bad weather. -
They were annoyingly abundant in the sound. I have eaten blue shark, they used to sell it in the stores when I lived in Mass. It was pretty good grilled.
-
Always wondered why sharks would not bloat, now I know. Used to run into big schools of spiny dogfish while salmon fishing in Puget Sound. Bait stealing thugs, I hated those things. Never did try and clean one and eat it, but I hear in Europe they are sold in fish and chip shops.
-
Looks like some good fish to be had. I have driven over that lake several times, and watched that Elite series event and just never have been too impressed with that lake. I always thought that during bird season, if a guy had a boat, you could get into some pheasant hunting that is away from the crowds.
-
Buddy of mine used garlic scent quite a bit, he caught more catfish than I did, but I could hold my own as far as bass with my unscented baits. Every once in a while I'll try some scents out, it just never seems to make a difference. I want them to work, sure would be nice to find the magic scent that calls bass in from all over the lake.

HA!, might forget myself.

Missed out on that upper end bite last week, but this spring that was the place to be, there was some good hybrid action there too. Last year there was a good bite too in September, they were schooling on shad, hope to see that again this fall.
-
Just so all the Tyson fans know, Sunday August 9 it is Tyson vs Jaws, can't remember if it is NGC or DSC, anyway, should be a good laugh.
-
Or possibly, "her budget". 😄
-
Yep, used to catch what they called bottom fish in Puget Sound in deep water, bladders would be out of their mouths.
-
Nice rain here this AM, and they are predicting more, especially tomorrow. Cooler temps on the way too, which my electric bill will appreciate.
-
Good to hear ya'll enjoyed yourselves! I was one of the guys fishing the deep end last Friday, caught some out deep swimming a Keitech. Not a hot bite, but got some nice fish, got run off about 0930 by the recreational boaters.
-
Yes sir. lots of those tiny shad around Indian creek at least as of Tuesday the last time I have been there.
-
Would not surprise me that a thermocline has set up, but can't verify it myself. Your plan sounds as good as anything I could come up with. it is a tough time of year for sure. I would put shad on the 'things to look for' list especially near the dam area.
-
You bet, that is a roomy boat you have. And kudos to Ham for traveling "light", even though it was only one bag he had with him, it was heavy enough that it could be left out on the deck when we were using the main motor to move around - and it did not budge. Had to get on plane with that bag weighing down the back of the boat. And that was just his panfish stuff. 😀

Bad accident on LOZ. https://www.lakeexpo.com/boating/boat_crashes/late-night-boat-crash-kills-one-injures-four-driver-arrested-for-bwi/article_d7075622-ce7f-11ea-9bd4-f776154ef8b2.html?fbclid=IwAR0n_XOurkp3TtN5oZiclNpsYRdz5Tzw7QcllOGjF2ahePwviwBgTElTKG4

Rps covered the Backbone very well. I haven't been over in that area in a while, but have a buddy that fishes around there on a regular basis and things are tough. Assuming you're a daytime fisherman, you want to get out at the crack of dawn. You're still going to get wake boats starting later in the morning, not as bad an further down lake, but there will be some.
