    You may have to go to his website - it's on his reports page. http://www.hookedonbass.com/FISHREPORT.htm

    I watch Pete's report every week, it is gold! Add to that Mr. Babler's reports and a person has some great, up to date info. Thanks Bill and Pete for providing the hard earned info!

    Fatcat goes a little overboard at times, but still some funny stuff in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL9CLybvIdQ&feature=player_embedded

    They did a little bit of BPS history during that live show last night - some interesting photos of the Brown Derby, and a bunch of guys in the tackle section looking at stuff.

    I've noticed that, Dirt seems to be very salty, PB&J not so much. Or it could be inconsistencies when they run them.

    Is this video available for public viewing? Ya'll have got me thinking that it may be time to try the TRD fished wacky. I think it may have worked yesterday as some of the fish were hitting the Ned on the sink. Just don't have any TRD's on hand. Guess it's time to order from my buddies at TW. (Sigh).

    Any one do any night fishing with the Ned? I was looking at the black/blue laminate and thinking that may work nights. So the Alabama craw is more of an orange? Wish they had a pumpkin similar to Zoom's pumpkin color.

    I left a Zinker chunk sitting on top of a Zoom plastic as an experiment. The Zinker seemed to suck the moisture out of the Zoom bait leaving it dry, deformed, and lifeless. They are definitely plastic killers, leave them separate.

    I can fish alone or with someone, it's always fun.

    I like visiting, but not the 2 hour drive to get there.

    They are running a "Classic Countdown" show at 1030 PM on the Outdoor channel, I recorded it, but it's running every night this week at 1030. I believe it is live and filmed in Springfield. Last night they had Zona, KVD, and some walleye guy. Kind of a disappointing show. Walleye guy was hawking an ice fishing jig that he was casting out and bouncing back to the boat in open water and said it is flat out whacking the walleye - only thing that was funny is that he forgot to name the brand of the jig. I'd recognize it if I looked in the catalog for it I guess. It's not a Rapala.

    Yeah, quite a few cookie cutter 2-3 lb. LM's in the lake this year. I can usually manage one or two a day. Hopefully they'll survive well and we'll see a good class of 4-5 lb. fish in a year or two. Hate to see that cool down coming, it will probably limit my fishing time, but may make some short trips to the Bella Vista lakes.

    You got the slam - congrats! I did catch a brown fish today, not a keeper, but it's the first one I have caught in probably a month or so.
  18. Quillback
    Good deal Bill - I must have missed you today, I was in the same area, except that I did not go up by Eagle Rock.

    Welcome!

    Welcome, and nice fish!

    Had to get out one more day with this nice weather. Fishing was decent, fish again being concentrated in a few spots. Found some in a couple of coves, maybe a 1/3 of the way back, where the cove split at a point. What I would think of as being pre-spawn spots, but of course it seems a bit early for that, however that's where they were. Deep, 20 feet, near trees in coves on those first points. Had to be a point with deep water nearby and rocky. Mostly largemouth back in the coves, caught a few spots out on a rocky point at a cove entrance off a steep drop off. Got them (the spots) vertically fishing the Ned. Saw some shad down about 30-35 feet on the finder, dropped the Ned to the bottom, brought it just off the bottom and shook it. Picked up 3 bass doing that today. Caught 13 total, maybe 4 keepers. And one short walleye. Water temps 42-43.

    Yep, another option, if you want to fish mid-lake, is Copper Mine Lodge. They have a dock also. Never have stayed there myself.

    Cool pics of the spoonies!

    I got to the launch today about 7:30 in the AM. I was expecting a bit of a breeze, sunshine, and I expected it to be cooler than yesterday, but got there, wind was howling, trees rocking back and forth, signs in the parking lot shaking from the wind, and it was cold! Never did get out of the low 40's. Man it was cold. OK, enough whining. Fishing was tough, caught 8 bass and a 14" crappie. 3 of the bass were keepers, and they all came on the Ned. Caught a couple on a swing jig/Strike King Menace grub combo and one on a jerk bait. A few fish were shallow, 10 FOW and the others were out at 20 feet. Water temps were 42-43.
