Members Wahoo61 Posted March 12, 2013 Members Posted March 12, 2013 Just wondering if anyone has been down. I am thinking about heading down this weekend to give it a whirl if they are going to be generating water. I will post if I go. Any reports would be appreciated. Tight Lines!
Wayne SW/MO Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Someone posted up that they had caught a few whites and a nice hybrid. I don't remember if walleyes were the mix or not. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Members Wahoo61 Posted March 14, 2013 Author Members Posted March 14, 2013 Thanks for the response Wayne. Another guy posted that he caught a 10lb walleye yesterday and saw a few others caught on the east side below the handicap dock. I have a buddy that might go down today so I will post if he does. Looks like yesterday they generated for 24 hours straight and plan to do so at least for another 24 today at 60%. Tight Lines.

Wayne SW/MO Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 I would check the generating schedule. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Members Wahoo61 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Members Posted April 1, 2013 I fished late Saturday and Sunday morning. Didn't really catch anything sat afternoon. Got up Sunday at 530. Raining. Decided not to go down in the dark and kill myself on the rocks. Went back to bed and got down there about 8 on the turbine side. Caught about 17 whites and hybrids. Mostly whites. White and chart slab hunter 3 inch on a 1/8 jig head pink and white. I caught fish on the first 6 casts. This was in about two hours. Bite had slowed by 1030. They'd said they were catching them good before I got there. I saw some crappies caught on the gate side. Dead arm was full of boats and I heard it was good there. Heard of a few big walleyes being caught early. Saw a few big hybrids caught. Good luck.
Members Wahoo61 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Members Posted April 1, 2013 Oh they were only running one generator while I was there
Wayne SW/MO Posted April 1, 2013 Posted April 1, 2013 We're you able to get up towards the fence, or was it good all the way down? Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Members Wahoo61 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Members Posted April 1, 2013 I was at the fence but they were catching good stringers below me too. Not sure how far down it was good, but a lot of fish were being caught.
Evolution Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 With the recent reports on here, I just had to get out today on my day off to see what all this fuss what about. Started off around 12ish on west side, threw everything but the sink and zip. Headed to east side and same results. Was about to give up when the alarm when off, so I knew I had to go back the west side. Fished near that waterfall area. After about 15 or so minutes, finally hooked up with a whitebass. Females where full of eggs but not quite ready to drop yet. Caught a total of 3 and lost 1. Sliders at a dead roll were the ticket. Quite a few heads today but most were concentrated near the stairs on the west side or near the fence on the east side. Anyone have any luck with jerkbaits since they are "suppost" to shine during the colder months? Threw them for most of the day but came up black and white.
