Lincoln Lake

[jtram]

Drove down to Lincoln Lake today, my rivers are up and I needed to fish in a bad way. caught 4 DINK lm and 1 good perch of some sort. fished everything I could think of in every type of structure available, and it sucked! Had heard it had some good fish, but even a decent bite eluded me. Has anybody fished this lake successfully?

It used to be a lot better. We have struggled the last few years.

Last fall a buddy and I had a string of good days fishing top water jerk baits, chasing the boils.  Caught quite a few l.M.  nothing over 2lbs.  It kept us coming back good a couple hours each afternoon til dusk.  

Just waiting for it cool down alittle to repeat the fun

Very weird lake.  Water always has a strange stain, the forage base is all brook silversides, and the bottom composition is really weird.   I used to fish there probably 10 or 12 times a year and could talk about it for a long time.  I've caught some really big fish in it and have had a lot of not so great trips. I haven't been there in a few years though.  It's more work than it's worth for me anymore.  My best  trip out there was during that giant flood a couple of years ago, and the water was almost at the top of the bluff folks camp on where the lake bends back to the right, probably over the top of the drain by 15 feet.  The entire parking lot area was underwater, and I launched off the side of the road.
