MObassin95 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 What were you using? Went there last spring and only managed one. Seems like a neat lake though
trythisonemv Posted July 20, 2016 Author Posted July 20, 2016 Bank using half a green pumpkin senko weightless and a small sparkle minnow swim bait. Both caight fish . Earlier the better. Going to try topwater and fly rod next time. Thy were coming all the way out of the water for dragon flies And frogs. Bite died off around noon. Really have to cast as far ahead of you as you can . along the grass line throw weightless worm and twitch pause. Yoyo worked on the swim bait.
trythisonemv Posted July 30, 2016 Author Posted July 30, 2016 Made it back out there again and threw panfish popper that resembles a small fro. On my five weight. Bass and big bull gills tore it up for about four hours. Sawseveral othErs out there catching a few but nothing major. Didnt fish with spinning gear bit about thirty minutes. Switched to fly rod and walked along flats pn far side. Didnt take long for the big gills to find my fly. Then the bass caught on. Total of about twenty bass and countless blue gill. Saw an old man in apond prowler catching some decent bass as well. Looked like he was throwing a creature bait of some kind. Nice day little rainy. . . Johnsfolly and MObassin95 2
Members lottabass Posted April 19, 2017 Members Posted April 19, 2017 I just read this today. It is funny as that "old man in a pond prowler" was me! In the summer I flipped a finesse jig or a tube in the brush piles. Also, a tube or a worm along the old channel drop. Stay away from the brush that is near the fishing jetty because its full of broken off fishing line. The biggest bass I caught there was just shy of 5 pounds. Lots of 12-16 inches. This lake was just 15 minutes from my house so I fished it a lot, and I enjoyed listening to the quail as I fished! trythisonemv, Quillback and Daryk Campbell Sr 3

Lots of quail out there . im only fifteen away as well and hit it quite a bit in summer with the fly rod. Funny that you found this post a year later almost ! Quillback 1
Members lottabass Posted April 19, 2017 Members Posted April 19, 2017 I guess I don't open this topic very often and I don't know what possessed me to open it now. Last October I retired from my job and moved back to Iowa where my family is. The bass are plentiful and stupid here! trythisonemv and Quillback 2
