Members arowell7 Posted June 7, 2007 Members Posted June 7, 2007 Going down there this weekend, wondering if anyone had fished there recently and had any success?
MOBass Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 I haven't been down for a couple of weeks so take that into consideration. I was catching fish good on a split shot rig as well as throwing stikos at boat docks and skipping them under the walkways. The stiko bite is probably over though. I would look for some topwater fish on a redfin or spook early and stay with it if you have cloud cover. Otherwise I would be throwing the splitshot, c rig, and football jig. I haven't got the drop shot thing dialed in so I can't offer much help there other that saying fish the bridge pillings. They cough up a fish or two for me on most trips. Post a report on the fishing and the boat traffic. I am afraid the lake lice and compensator boats will make it rough.
Members arowell7 Posted June 7, 2007 Author Members Posted June 7, 2007 Thanks for the recommendations! Post a report on the fishing and the boat traffic. I am afraid the lake lice and compensator boats will make it rough. I'll let you all know what I come up with as well as the activity on the lake. I probably won't be fishing much past noon for fear of the activity, except for bait for the trot line in the evening. I'm heading down tomorrow night so if I get down early enough and get the boat out I might do a little evening fishing, we'll see.
Members arowell7 Posted June 12, 2007 Author Members Posted June 12, 2007 Got skunked. Tried jigs, split shot, c-rig and topwater. That was pretty much all saturday. Sunday went to check the trot line and took off 5 fish and a big soft shell. 1 channel and 4 flathead. Was able to unhook the soft shell and watch him swim off. No fishing after that as we had motor trouble after we took the fish off and had to troll all the way back home. Trolling battery died, switched over to the starter battery and it barely got us in. Didn't go back out after that. Had we not taken off those 5 catfish, it would have been a very unproductive weekend. Whoops, I guess I didn't get skunked. I did manage a dinker LM on a rooster tail. Other than that, nothing.
