Amber lake in hobart rosser park in lake station and hoffman lake in warsaw. Fluke jr white ice with red belly.

I've been taking them on flukes mostly, shallow water just along the shore. Black and blue jigs have been pretty good too. This is my first year not hammering them on spinnerbaits.

Indeed! That's what I've been targeting heavly there is no shortage of them! I've worked a couple of little 'coves' very throughly with everything I've got at all times of day. These coves are covered in lily pads and I throw frogs over them punch through em with plastics and jigs work spinners through em all to no avail. It's a challange and I love challanges! But almost feel like there just aren't the numbers or bass in here to keep it up. I've caught zero bass here, warmouths slam my spinners and I've caught bluegills (albiet unlucky ones) on pop-r's. I've tried under the dam too but not as hard as the main lake. Do lakes ever get so bad that the bass population dwindles to tiny numbers? I'm not giving up yet I just want to catch a d**n bass from here! I fish the main two thirds up from the dam, the last third isn't really accessible.

Good morning! The lake I want to catch on is a river damed up, Lake George in Lake County Indiana. I'm fairly confident in my fishing abilities and locating bass, but my knowledge on lakes and what makes them productive isn't as sharp. I'm a shore fisherman so I have to go off what I find online and what people tell me. The things I hear about this lake differ with everyone I talk to, but I think I've got it somewhat narrowed down. Couple things I'm pretty sure are spot on 1) lake is filled with silt 2) very shallow, about six foot throughtout 3) almost void of vegatation except lily pads 4) water is almost always murky My question or concern is should I keep trying various locations on this lake or am I just that unlucky that I can't snag one here. From my understanding when a lake is filled with silt and is void of good vegatation the fishing wanes. Anyone have any insight on this situation? I would love to pull some hawgs from this lake, I know they are there but I am just going about it wrong or am out of step with something! So frustrating =)
