Fellows Lake

[timsfly]

I fished Fellows today, had a friend call and needed a second today to help balance out the boat

Well I of course said yes, and we had a good time, a bit brisk early but the fishing was good, we

boated a lot of bass, I caught several on a black/white clouser and several on a chartruse clouser,

Todd was catching all his bass on a 3" bass assasain plastic bait in black/silver and in a chartruse

color. I did try to catch some crappie and managed to catch a few, most were under 10" but several were

decent, I had two Musky follow my bait again today, one was decent size, and one was about 36" long, I

really wish one would hit someday, I would love to fight one on my fly rod, I think we landed about 50 bass

Todd did much better than me on the plastic baits, but I threw the fly rod, and had a good time, caught a

few bluegill and lots of small bass, I had 5 that were around 15" Todd had some nice bass that were bigger

and of course we didn't have a camera, I had left phone and camera in the car.

Water seemed to be in good shape we could see several feet deep.

Where were you getting the crappie bites and what was the water depth? Any info appreciated.

[timsfly]

Getting the crappie in 5-10' of water around about any kind of stick up, we were fishing chartruse a lot, I was using buggers

and small jigs most of the time

Thanks for the info.Was one end of the lake better than the other?

I chime in......with respect to using the fly rod there, were you using a sinking line, sinking tip, or sinking leader? It really sounds like fun to use a fly rod like that and I hope to do so this spring/summer. As stated above, any info is appreciated.

I was using a floating lne and on the buggers and jigs I used about 9' 5x tippet.
