Beaver Lake Dangerous Spots.

[Ron Burgundy]

I only pay attention to the walleye reports and I found it strange when it said they were catching them on bouncers and crawlers....I know two guys that load the boat each outing, they catch over 100 walleyes each summer out of Beaver and all they use is bouncer and crawlers....100% of the time.... and when they say they can't find them in the winter time, I had doubts when I read that report about bouncers and crawlers.

I tend to stay clear of the lake in the Boating Season as your not allowed to shoot or catch them and I hear they taste horrible!

Bahahahahahaha!!!!!!

That's a good one!

Ron if its the two old guys im thinking of I can promise you they do catch them and they are using harness's. They turned me on to the area and how last year in return for a striper spot. I went out and nailed my limit in 20 minutes all over 22''. I will say they do not launch anyplace near where thye fish and I have watched them go out of the way to make sure they are not followed. If im in the area and they come in I will bow out to them, true artist at catching Walters they are.

Winter time there is a secret to them. 3 to 6 fow in the afternoon when it heats up the flats but you better be contour trolling with planers out and it takes two people one on boat control one on snag and fish duty, I dont enjoy it because of how much work it takes and how many baits you loose but its very effective. When they move out to 8 to 12 fow is when i love it most for trolling, Run the Keitechs and Flickershad behind the boat 100ft. when you get a bite turn around and start throwing jerk baits, keitechs or rattle traps to the area you can normaly get 2 or 3 more from it or more.

Guys

Can anyone provide some tips on locating white bass and striper. I hope to be able to fish this weekend

Thank for your suggestions

White bass just launch at PC motor out to the bluffs across from the ramp and enjoy, they have been there for what seems like ever this year. Striper err that will require a lot of motoring to find the biggest shad balls and fish them and pray. Or if a good mudline has developed find it and zig zag in and out of it.

Spoons for whites?

I'm planning on SWEPCO Sunday but may try this if plans change.

[Feathers and Fins]

Doc, Ive just been using brooders because of a few very nice size crappie in the area as well.
