Big M area 3/31

[Quillback]

 

 

Fished from above Big M down to about point 23.  Above Big M the water is fairly dingy, visibility maybe a foot or two, below it starts to clear up a bit, maybe 3-5 feet of viz.  In the dirty water I caught fish on a Wiggle Wart and the Menace grub on a 3/8 oz wobble head.  In the clearer water the Ned was working better.  Stained water fish were better quality overall, caught 6 largemouth keepers on the Wart and Menace, mainly back in pockets and coves.  Caught one smallie keeper on the Ned.  25 bass total. 

Worked the Wart and Menace fairly close to the bank on rocky shores.  Ned was catching deeper fish, 10-20 FOW.

Water temps 55-57

Thanks Quill for the report, sounds like you a good day on the lake.

Stay in that stained water, pushes them shallower and generally quality is much better. IMO

Yep, I should have stayed in the dirt, but I was curious as to what the water looked like down by point 23.

Quill, thanks for the information. Left fish to find fish? HMMM......you must be an explorer.

Can't blame a fellow, could be greener on the other side. 

I did the same thing out of Cape my last outing. After fishing back to ramp, I went down past Wooly to hit some honey holes, much clearer and nada. Loaded up.
