Wilde lake is known in howard county for good size crappies in the spring, you can probably land 1-2 lbers in there as I have in the past. As far as for centennial, you would need a kayak/boat to reach some good spots. You can definately fish from shore, but there are too many bank fisherman there. There are not places you can go if you can't drive, maybe ask a friend/family to drive you? Rocky George got some decent size bass, but need an annual permit to fish there. Other places to consider is Loch Raven, which you can rent a row boat for 30 dollars a day.

6’6 Shimano Compre/Shimano 3000 CI4 is my finesse bait setup, and 6lb fluorocarbon (Seaguar or Pline). Finesse fishing is a more of a technique, then trying to figuer out which bait to use. Finesse fishing is done at a slower rate, and you need constant bottom contact. I will fish finesse when the bass is inactive, or in colder water. I had some success using North star Finesse Jig/Paca chuck, Wacky senkos(different brands), and recently drop shot with zoom trick worms.

yummie...Put that thing on the grill!

I am with you on this, because i bought a bottle last year and started using it on all my setups. Honestly, I couldn't tell any difference.

Great Fish

Got it on my reminder...

Depends on the depth, if it's shallow then I will suggest 1/4 finesse jig with matching trailer. Or a football jig would do it as well, if you want faster fall rates.

wow, thanks Bill. I am going to hit those spots this weekend, hehe.

Before my daughter, I was probably doing 7-8 hours during weekdays and 4-5 on weekend. Now, I am getting 3-5 hours depends on my daughter's schedule...

Have a good trip, Brain.

I found craw types of trailer works better during spring, and fall. Once temperture warms up, then Zoom fat albert really shines for me. Also, I have been swimming NorthStar finesse Jig with Paca craws/spinning gears. And it works pretty good, if I want to down size the baits.

I am going to give it a try, do you nose hook it?

Kool deal. probably not a good idea for me to fish there then, unless there is a way to get a permission to fish?

You fish drop shot with senko? my vote goes to trick worm as well.

Nice Fish...

Go out and fish nothing but Jigs, you will get one.

I hear you bro, but Jigs are meant to be fished in the heaviest cover. Eventually, you will lose a few but it does suck. You can invest in a lure retriever tool, and might save few bucks on the long run.

Straight to the point! X2

I have like two plano boxes worth of Northstar Jigs, it is probably around 45-50 of them. But I will lose 1-2 per outing, so it goes pretty quickly.

Weasel, I fish centennial park almost every week. Lake elkhorn, and wilde lake have some decent size bass in them as well. I have never fished at Orchard nature preserve, where is that place located by the way?

Personally opinion, a website is not going to work. A simple reason: who is going to check a website for hints during a fishing trip? If you want to build a website to share location, photo, then it's already been done. If you are working on an apps, then it might work depends on how you write it.

I like the apps idea better than a website, you could include a search options for different locations. Pm me with more details, I will see what I can do to help.

U wanna charge membership fees, when there are so many free fishing sites out there? Yeah, I can see this venture is gonna do well.
