I didn't get on the water until 7:30, but by 10:00 I had boated six nice 16in.+ bass and a couple of pike on a black double buzzer and a chart. Spinnerbait. Those fish were all in 7ft. Or less along the east shoreline.

A weightless stick worm produced a couple more over the deepest weeds along that same stretch and that same spinnerbaits netted a couple of decent pike on the flat off the south side of the channel peninsula .

I wish I hadn't dragged my feet getting on the water My plan was to get there at sun-up, but the rain delayed my departure.

I'm heading up there Sunday EARLY hopefully the fishys will cooperate

A few guys were boating good numbers of little fish in the 12-15ft. zone, but most of the better fish I saw caught were from the weeds that had deep water close.  My biggest came out of 3ft. of water between two docks. I had been switching spinnerbaits and saw baitfish activity, sat on the spot for ten minutes or so and the black buzzbait was more than she could resist.  The owner of one of the docks was banging away working on a yak hanger. I thanked him for spooking the fish out from under his dock.  LOL

My buddy who fishes there about once or twice a week keeps texting me pics. Last week a 6+ and today a 5+. Can't wait to hit the water tomorrow. Hopefully the storms will be gone by then.  

Slooooow. Think we caught 10 bass and a few pike. This was the big one.

 

We talked to the police patrolling the lake and they had said no one was getting them. Ran into a guy we fish tourneys with and he said he killed them last Thursday, today not so much.
