Lower end, April 21

The smallies are still biting.  I fished until 1100, wind started blowing pretty hard, and I'd had enough of fighting the wind.  Boated 30 smalls, a small striper, and a barely short walleye.  Caught a couple early on the Whopper Plopper, then it was the ned rig and the 2.8 Keitech.  Smallies are still out in the 10 FOW, with a few shallower, especially on a windy bank.  

Biggest smalls was a bit over 18", just shy of 3 lbs.  You can see the flat stomach on it, I'm sure it is spawned out.

Probably won't get back out again until next week, stuff to do and Friday looks to be stormy.  You guys be nice to them!

Looks like Saturday is the only day to fish from the weather forecast I saw.  I'll be heading out to lower end with a friend.  He loves catching the brownies.  

 

Dad went out with a buddy today and they caught probably 60.  Mostly brownies.  Said he had one black that was close to 6lbs throw his bait by the boat.

I was out this morning on the lower end and caught maybe a dozen or so, mostly smallmouth and a couple kentuckys. Just on the water for a couple hours. Mostly used small tube baits. I lost so many fish today for some reason, must not be getting a good hookset.
