Please Help Thin The Heard

If you want whites and Hybrids go launch at 12 bridge... start trolling as soon as you leave the ramp.... head for the islands.... Fill ice chest tell all your friends... Please they are ruining the crappie and walleye bite that was there 140 to 170 ft behind the boat with White Flicker shad sizes 5 6 7 at 2.5mph...

You said in another post some up to 5lbs, you should weigh those carefully, the state record is 5lbs 4oz. That was Bull Shoals and I think Beaver could beat that record if someone cared to go through the paperwork.

I think I'd rather hold the state record for drum or gar than white bass. :-)

Hybrids were up to 5lbs not the whites, whites were maxing at about 2 to 2.5 the post was for both species.

Just keep them there for another two weeks. Number 2 Son comes home from university in Wales then, and he will thin 'em down quite a bit. We need some boat time together, and that would be perfect.

KJ, if they move, they will just end up in Rocky Branch don't worry they are predictable this time of year right after the spawn. You have about 3 to 4 weeks till they spread out as a rule.

What im real happy with is the amount and size of walleye. Been catching fish from 8'' up to 30'' in good numbers of each size range my guess is within 5 years we will see high teen walleye coming from Beaver

Well for the record, I got a call from someone yesterday after I tried one of his spots and struckout big-time with hardly a fish in the graph and very little activity on an awesome foggy morning ....(not mention his name or anything....

!!!!F&F!!!!! :-)

And I then proceeded to the "majic area" to fill my tiny live well with about 10 whites or so. I am now setup to troll after some HEAVY influence from a certain forum member lol!! I tried the south side of the North island and then the North side of the south island in 15-20ft. No. 7 flicker on 10lb Segaur flourocarbon at 140-150ft behind the boat.

Not a single bite. So then I continued out on one of his "milk-runs" to see if I found anything. I then found a massive school of fish, marked a few waypoints and trolled over them. Caught o e white and decided to try a jigging spoon. My line was twisted already on my spinning reel and after tying on a spoon with a barrel swivel....it just got worse. Then a certain someone strolls over and pulls a fish out of the live well...."they're about this big over there in 20ft!" :-). So I tried it again.

So ......

Watch your graph and find the fish. They are around there somewhere but I never saw any massive schools as reported on the island. Then again... I don't have side-scanning sonar so I'd have to be right on top of them to find them.

That big school I found were stripers according to Scott but I think there was a mix of whites with them. You know.... the wannabes running around with the bad kids! Lol!!

If I weren't going out of town for a few weeks, I'd be back there again and trying my luck. Darn things are tasty when filleted and if you cut the red strip of meat off.

If they move, let me know. I want another crack at those suckers.
