Lower lake areas have white bass spawns without shoals. Like Ham stated. When I target them I like to have a consistent wind direction preferably for 3 days In a row then fis those places at night. Buck tail jigs in red/black and purple/orange have been my best producers unless the moon is bright. This has always been a late April or early May thing, way later than the river spawn.

Any of you using one to stabilize a trolling motor? I bought one to support my MK Ulterra with 360. I’m looking for ideas to keep the claw open while stowing it from the console.

I didn’t know that. I seldom shop Amazon. Did you go to Cape Wednesday?

I found a guy today who had access to the one thing we have not been able to find in any store ( t p ). I offered to buy some and he knowing that I make baits said he wanted to swap for some heads to fit the swim baits that I had made him. So we worked out a deal. I gave him some 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, and 5/8 oz heads.Now we both have something that we wanted.

With the water that high riffles won’t be anywhere below the 160 bridge.

So how did today go?

Glenn I am hoping for the best for you. Good luck.

Don’t sore lip all of those green fish tomorrow. I can’t get there before Thursday. I have to sprat musk thistle tomorrow.

Thanks. I was hoping you would see this and give me a report. Stockton is killing me and twice as far as Cape Fair.

Ii may give Cape Fair a shot Thursday. Has the water cleared up any? I have some spinner baits and crank baits that need to get wet.

When I planned to hunt with a particular caliber, I would buy a new rifle and a good Leupold scope. I’d bore sight it and head for the range. For the first 100 rounds I really didn’t care much about accuracy. I would shoot 5 rounds then clean the barrel. After each set of 3 5 shot rounds I would use Sweets to really clean the bore. After 100 rounds I would start developing a load. Normally 15 rounds of a particular load would give me enough data. As I got closer to good groups with a particular load I would tweak it by changing primers and amounts of powder. My goal was sub minute groups at 100 yards. When that was achieved, I would start zeroing in the scope. After that process was complete, I moved out to 200 yards and finalized my settings.

Some times they do.

I have always sighted mine in working on sub minute groups at 200 yds. It has taken months of experimenting with powder primers and bullets to get it right for some rifles. Then there is my grandson who has his sighted in at 650 yds. But that’s ok cause that’s what he does for a living.

Congrats. It looks a lot heavier than that to me.

I got out a world map put it on the kitchen wall, took out some darts and told my wife to throw a dart. I told her that we would go there no matter where it landed. Well it appears that we are spending a month behind the refrigerator.🤣

Yep. That is why I don’t get off the side by side unless it’s below 40°.

If you are talking about the MDC ones you should be able to download them from their site. It sounds like you need to get into the habit of backing up your waypoints every now and then.

Nope.

That is interesting. It was way out of the water Saturday.

They were Saturday. State park was busy.

I don’t think you will find a courtesy dock anywhere on the lake except the pontoon dock at Hartley. I plan to go tomorrow and look for clear water down by the dam. I plan to put in at Stockton park. It will be my last trip fpr a while as we are going on lockdown Thursday night.

Evidently not for those of us in Greene County starting Friday morning. The news reported up to $1000 fine for a violation. I’m going tomorrow then putting the boat away for a while.

Both ramps at Cape Fair are open but the water is muddy.

I went to the early “old folks” WM near me. They didn’t have any. I think every senior within 100 miles was there. I’m not doing that again. It won’t be long until the trees leaf out.😃

Stop and rob had $1.59 in Republic yesterday.
