I always sight in at 200 yards. That way I may be a bit high at 100 or less but can comfortably take longer shots.
-
You may want to call COE or State Park and check on the curtesy dock situation the way the lake has risen.
-
I can do line # test but don’t know about diameter. Ill see if I have it.
-
There is going to be water coming down the James also. We have had 6” of rain at the farm south of Hurley in the last 4 days.
-
They would definitely feed us with some left over. Nice looking specs there. So has muddy water made its way down to Hawker? I just can't catch fish in cold muddy water. It is a bit early for me to be down by the dam but warm weather may put me there looking for greenies.
-
I had planned to watch March Madness. Now I am watching birds in the back yard fighting over worms. So far the score is Cards 4 and the Jays 2.
-
These fronts can really mess with prespawn whites. I’ve seen a front come through and cause them to turn and head back toward the lake. All but 1 of the whites that we caught Friday were heavy with eggs but did not look real close to spawning.
-
My wife has walked most of them while I was out fishing.
-
I cannot catch fish in cold muddy water. I was on fish consistently in the James till muddy water came down last week and killed the bite.
-
Some one must have we struggled in muddy Son’s Creek for 2 hours this am. Not a bite so I headed up river. Stopped on a couple of points and caught a dozen close to spawning female whites. We never had a black all day. Man that ne wind, cloud cover, and temps in the 40s did a number on this old body.

I moved my operation south for the winter. Table Rock doesn’t treat me so bad in the winter. I do plan to be on Stockton maybe SonsCreek tomorrow.
-
May be the same one I saw too far up Turkey creek by the bridge.
-
That’s probably right but plane is too fast to dodge stuff. Besides the last time I tried it was with a guy who said he knew just how to go. That little trip cost me $800.
-
He may have been. I don't know anything about river levels. All I know is what I read about lake levels. My boat won't go very far up a river.
-
Welcome back hope all is well with you. Bass reports have been slim on this site.
-
Perhaps we aren’t talking about the same levels. All I know about is the lake level as reported on USGS.
-
Level holding around 870. I plan to go Friday if they don’t get too much rain down there.
-
I use heat shrink tubing The Mud Hole. I like the red/black best.
-
I’ll know for sure after Thursday. I’m really getting tired of Arigs and shaky.
-
They have them out at Lew’s. That is where I had to go.
-
I saw water temps from 47° to 54° above Cape Fair today. I think I will wet one Thursday.
-
Little Sac is fine. Main lake moss. Price’s branch no moss.
-
Same for drop shot. Long before the term came about we were using a jig below a worm instead of a lifeless sinker.
-
It wasn’t the cows lying down that caused the fish to not bite, they do that when they have a full belly. A well fed herd of cattle will lie down by 09:00. They have 4 stomachs. They regurgitate their food and chew their cud while in that position.

If you want to get really confusing, add cover into the mix.
