Where are the Spots

[Bill Babler]

I’ve seen a wave of the rough tongued critters more than once come in on Memorial Day weekend, around the next full moon. 

Spots can get extremely hard to find in the dam area this time of year. Seems like Baxter is the partial stopping point. 

Yesterday a guy standing on his dock said he had 32 on a spook and 1/2 were keeps. This is up in Quills territory. 

Yesterday I had more LM, zero jaws and a few K!s, but I was fishing where the LM live most of the morning.

That's Ron.  We call that spot "Ron's House".  I know someone else that talked to him yesterday.  Small world.  😃

I might have a Spook tied on next time, or a buzzer.

Been fishing that gravel run since 1980. Always good this time of year. 

Really good in the Fall in a big jig. 

Pulled up there one day in June 20 years ago and Becky swam around on a floaty while Steven and I caught top water fish while she swam.  

Livescope looked like the stars in a night sky there yesterday. 

Not far from your brush pile either.   I had a nice LM off it also and a couple of spots. 

Over the years I bet that house has sold a dozen times.
