Boated to Roark in search for some whites. Got there about 7 pm. The wind was blowing against the east bank and we caught 6 quick whites including a 3.38 lb sow caught by James Johnson (pic). Jim Johnson, his dad, caught a couple smaller whites and a crappie or two. Wind slacked off and so did the fishing. I caught the black at the mouth just before we headed out. It weighed 3.26 lbs. The black was released and I would have released the big sow but it didn't do well in the live well on the way back.

All fish were caught on a smoke swimming minnow. Still lots of trout in the creek, even though they were hammered hard over the weekend.

Hey Lilley, thanks for the report. Where is Roark at from your place? Upstream or Downstream? I'm not planning on fishing there but was just wondering. Thanks

It's in downtown- same side of the lake just past the Landing.

I second the Trout comment...I caught tons of trout in Ruark Cove this week on Jigs and small spinners, power baits of course......

It seems to me they were getting out of that super fast 4 generator current in the main lake....but who knows...

No- they've been in there for almost 3 weeks, well before the water started last week. They schooled in there right after they were stocked I bet and never left.

It's "James" now! Jamie sounds too much like a "kid".
