Fishing Report Cape Fair 12-30-16

[Hammer time]

Put in at 8 and hit a few holes up river for bass, nada. Lots of boats out. Hit a few crappie hole past point 15 and caught two nice slabs on 1/16oz jig and that was it, tried for a hour longer and nothing.

Moved down around Thompson and fished back to ramp, threw deep diving clown rogue on bluffs and swings. Caught 9 spots 1 black and 1 brownie all shorts. Had fun but couldn't find any quality, but was happy getting bit. The crappie I cleaned full of eggs already, not mature but close.

Tight lines and CPR

Hammer I have been to the pt 15 area 2 times lately.  Fishing for specs has been tough.  There has only been an afternoon bite for us.   One day we caught 20 with 16 of them keepers in Flat.  The other day we caught 14 with 10 keepers in James.  A few years ago 100 crappie was not out of the question for a good day but now there are lots more boats in that area.

Dutch, that's for sure, must of been 10--15 boats around point 15 in Flat creek and the James side
