Members LEBHUNTFISH Posted May 25, 2009 Members Posted May 25, 2009 Has any one been catching any Crappie or Catfish? A bad day fishing or hunting is better than a good day at work anytime!
OzarkFishman Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 I've been seeing a lot of small to average catfish caught by the warm water outlet at Springfield Lake.

Members nathan RN Posted May 26, 2009 Members Posted May 26, 2009 try below the darn, with the water being up there are usually some nice fish down there. last year about this time my uncle caught a really nice walleye below the darn. there is always something in that area.

I need some fish to eat! Me and the wife just like to take off for an hour or two sometimes and these little lakes are close to the house, but I kinda like to know if its worth my time to drive to one of the three of them. Its only about 20 min to each but I like to know when and where if you know what I mean. A bad day fishing or hunting is better than a good day at work anytime!
Predator1 Posted May 31, 2009 Posted May 31, 2009 Hey Pat, I took my wife to Fellows Lake today and we caught our limit on BlueGill. We kept all the ones that were bigger than my hands. I also caught a two and half pound channel cat. All on worms from our garden. Of the BlueGills, one was a female with eggs and the other 38 were males full of sperm. We just rigged a small hook on the end of the line with a spitshot weight a foot up on 6lb test line. We found the fish off the reddish points on the sandgravel beds. Those spots may look merky red. However that is where the males are making the beds. This whole next week should be real nice. I dont know what the water temp was. We got there at 1:30pm and left at 4:30. I stuffed 2 quart ziplock bags with nice fillets. My wife loves to fish and she usually brings a book with her to read when the fishing is slow. She did not have time to pick up her book today. The action was a fish every other cast. My son and I will be there in the morning. Good luck every one. Charles
