First post and a bit of a report

[RyanG]

Figured I would go ahead and make a post, this is my first post but I have lurked around for a while now reading reports and all the information provided by y'all. I have learned a lot from the information you guys all share and would like to contribute my self! I just wish today I had something in the form of good news. I mostly bass fish and have been doing so for as long as I could cast a rod but have finally gotten into my own boat within the last year.

Anyways, I went out this evening from 6 til around 9 or so and fished mostly shallow in the flooded brush in hopes something would be lurking up there. Only managed one spot about 13 inches on topwater and then chased some schooling whites that busted the top for about a minute with nothing to show. There was little to no fish breaking the surface but there was tons of bait on the surface. I was around the Islands near 12 bridge. I frequent the islands since I have access to a dock and live in Coose Hollow. As I got back to the dock around dark there was just tons of bait on the surface. But couldnt find feeding fish to save my life. I know this may be old news and isnt much of a report but I have been wanting to become active in the community for a while! Gonna try for a bit early tomorrow and see what happens. Hopefully I will have better fishing to report soon! Oh, if you see an old red ranger 492 with a yamaha and guy that looks like he isnt catching much, feel free to say hi! Lol.

Howdy! Still pretty new myself. Lots of info here. Good to see another poster. a "no fish" report is better than "no report" Welcome.

Welcome! Thanks for the report!

Thanks guys! I went out for about an hour close to noon (yes I'm crazy) and fished some docks and managed to pick up 3, a 15 inch spot and two shorter largemouth. But with this heat I'll be off the water for a few days at least. Thanks for the warm welcome!

Welcome the forum, Ryan. Might as well get used to some long, slow days on Beaver. That's pretty much the norm there.

Thanks for the report. Helps people like me who can't get out much.

Thanks champ! Yes, I have grown up here but in this last year or so I have really learned just how hard it can be to fish this lake sometimes!

Welcome and thanks for the report.

Negative reports are just as valuable as ones about a load of fish--at least, that's what I keep telling myself.
