Ouick Report

[Bill Babler]

Unlike the night guys, us day guys are having a pretty slow time of it. 8 to 12 fish of a 1/2 day guide trip is pretty much where we are at,with 3 to 5 keepers.

Most of the fish are coming off a splitshot in 10 to 30, quite a range. Lots of smalljaws, in the shallower end and the K's on the deep end.

Still not finding pods of dropshot fish, one here and one there. Seems if you catch one, you might as well just move to another location.

Whites are coming up about every other day. One day you get them and then they go two or three days and don't come up. Beck reported they stayed up in different locations, on Friday from daylight till after 9AM.

Guide reporting the same thing on all lake and river sections.

Two of us fished Sunday a.m. in the Baxter area fom 5 till about 8:30 with minimal success. The topwater bite was hit and miss. We managed three fish, one spot,one small smallie, and one big white and had numerous chasers. No real schools of fish hitting the surface, mostly just singles and they didn't stay up there long. Did throw the shakey head and c-rig in some areas with no luck. Hope others are finding time to get out and enjoy the nice weather.

Bill--did you get my p.m. about the guide trip?

FF, I did not get your PM. I am running around right now like a one legged man in a three leg sack race.

Keep those reports coming.

Guys, I am only able to look at the forum for maby a few minutes every other day or so right now. This is just really hectic, with the lodge and the guide work.
