New poster here, but have been lurking, reading, and watching this report for years now. Good stuff guys, appreciate the time it takes to write these. Purchased a new rig this winter so I'm fishing more now, so I thought I'd start chiming in.
Thanks for the report Sully, I've been struggling to find good ones last couple times out SW Metro, at least that's something to go on. Anything you are keying in on when you flip - hard bottom, structure, etc? I want to flip, but not sure where to start.
I can't find anything but dinks up shallow and on docks, so I'm trying not to spend much time there. I need to dedicate some more time to frogging, just haven't yet. Been running moving baits in 8-10 fow over grass, but not getting the bites there I was a few weeks ago. Yesterday, I did find quite a few in the submerged milfoil that hasn't topped out yet. No real size, but it was enough of an indicator to run a pattern if I would have had the time. Been trying to find some off shore spots to deep crank, but it seems 9 casts out of ten come back with junk on my plug, I don't feel that is very efficient so getting frustrated there. I'm graphing quite a few fish on main lake points in 13-17 fow, but not exactly sure what they are. I try to drop shot them and most seem to be bluegills tearing at my lure.
Keep the reports coming fellas.
