Moswimb8slinger Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Saturday, i covered empire side of the dam down to the 76 bridge. Powersite was generating for most of the time until 3pm. Mainly deep holes all day dragging Gulp! Minnows on the bottom with no bites, forgot my jerkbait box so i was SOL on those, no takers on the BBZ1 or S-waver swimbaits or the A-rig. Heres some spots i fished Sunday the dam was generating (1or 2), started at the stairs for the old Bull Shoals dock with a RC stick, got 2 keeper LM in 5 casts. Move up stream from there to check out the mud flat with no other bites. Moved back down to the stairs and got another keeper LM on the 2nd cast and missed another( not sure on species, just a flash just out of sight). Then the flow stopped and didn't get anymore bites. Water is pretty clear, maybe 15-20ft visibility. Just casted the RC stick upstream reeled it down and reeled fast enough to keep the slack out and gave it either a single or double twitch every 2 or 3 complete turns of the reel. As
Quillback Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Some nice chunks there, thanks for the report.
Moswimb8slinger Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 No problem, I'm looking for those pesky walleye and thought the last 2 days i would of had a chance with all that cloud cover. Buster says they may not show up there for another week or 2. You can't catch if your not fishing for them.lol
Quillback Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Yep that's my problem - I'm not fishing! But it looks like later this week I may have a chance to get out.
Moswimb8slinger Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 After another round of snowy weather tomorrow and its supposed to warm up into the 50's by next weekend. That will be very nice not to be wearing 3 layers to stay warm...
Moswimb8slinger Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Here's the area i fished today, the peg is roughly the stairs i got all 3 bass from...
vonreed Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 There has been a LOT of walleye caught off that bank, especially when the water is generating real well.
Moswimb8slinger Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 I was down there last year march, catching bass on spinnerbaits, and my buddy got a birds nest, picked it out and when he reeled up and picked the spinnerbait up off the bottom he hooked and landed one that went 4.25lbs. I'm looking for the bigger girls this year...
Moswimb8slinger Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Bank, the maps are from a Navionics GPS app on my phone. It really helps with finding structure. Its helped finding deep sections, flats and ledges
