Thanks. If all goes well I may get down that way next week sometime.
wrench I have not had my boat above the Cave Hole. How much farther is it up to wading water?
I haven't been in quite a while as I had some minor surgery and have been rehabbing for the last few weeks. I'm thinking next week might be worth a trip but and not sure where to start, ( Pom, Lindley, dam area)?
Are the bass deep or shallow? Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, or jigs and worms?
It's been over 10 years since I grew them so I don't remember exactly how it is done. I got a publication from the University of Missouri Extension Center in Springfield that told all about growing them. It was free and full of good info. All I'd do is call them up and ask for a particular publication and they'd mail it to me.
That varies from year to year. Year before last I could get a limit of specs in 1.5 hours any day I wanted to fish. Last fall I struggled. If I were just picking a time I'd go late Oct or early Nov but that is just me as I like cooler days.
A walleye fillet from Stockton smoked with some lemon pepper and some veggies from the garden grilled with olive oil and vinegar to spice them up. Along with a fresh made slaw. Yum Yum.
I made some electronics moves in my boat and needed to get on the water to test the results. They were good.
I started out fishing bluffs and bluff ends for bass because I thought any self respecting bass would drop back because of the front. Nothing nada. I did some drag fishing in 13-15 fow and came up with one. I finally decided to hit some shallow stuff and caught 13 more on spinnerbaits. They were not big but a few keepers were in the bunch. Those deep fish did not cooperate with me today.
I've never owned a MK but some friends have them. The run just fine but I don't like to run them because the big foot control and the button on the wrong side.
Any reputable boat dealer goes through all of the at the time of delivery even if the customer is a big boy tournament angler. Those who don't are the ones causing the problem. They just let the novices buy and go.
Is that the newly remodeled on at the corner of Hwy 123 and 215? If so they have a pretty good selection of baits and the lady told me that they open at 0600.
On the other side of the coin. I "dropped" a bunch of money on a mold, swivels, rod, baits, etc. I gave it two different seasons. Now some lucky guy in NY has the molds and swivels. I melted down the baits and turned them into something else. I did catch some fish but for me it was a lot like watching paint dry.
