Don't know about anyone else, but 2015 hasn't been good at all on the Big Niangua. Probably the best week for me has been weekend of Mar 14th. But still wasn't as good as years past. Normally the big ens are hangin around for easy pickins, but, while that weekend was good, it was still sub par.
I've lived hear for the past couple years, but been coming down a couple times each spring for the last 30 years and this year, by far, was the worst I've ever witnessed.
This past week, I never cleaned a limit. Last Sunday, I cleaned 9 fish total. From Monday thru Friday, I boated 5 fish. I fished from our place up to about the 5mm of the BN.
I did go out one day with bottom bouncers and minnows, caught one short walleye and about a half dozen drum.
The highlight was a 17" spotted bass I caught with my bare hands. Actually it was brought up on my lift when I brought up my boat
Today, looked like it was changing for the good. Had to leave for Columbia at 8 this morning, so I walked around our place and in a half hour I caught seven 10-11" males and one 12" female. Males were pretty dark. Oh well, that's the way it goes.
