Jon and I fished Wyco for a couple hours this morning. He forgot his rain gear so when the rain started the party was over! It was tougher than I expected but I caught one on my 6 3/4" S Waver in the marina, a few on a wacky rig, and missed a whole bags worth of Flat Dawgs and senkos on a wacky rig for some reason along with a couple more misses on a chatterbait. Jon caught one on a jerkbait, broke off one on a wacky rig, and I think that was it. Water temps from 59-63 and very clear.

  • Watched the trout stocking at Wyco this afternoon.  There were some nice sized ones came out of that chute.

  • I fished the Dotte Saturday with my son and his buddy we caught crappie at the dam on ned rigs drifting in 25 to 30 feet of water, they where stacked up from 30 feet to 15 feet deep for about 150 yard

  • Well, it kind of does not help the fisheries when there has not been any kind of fish sampling for maybe 5-6 years.  Since the county going back to its permits, the state does not want to get involved

Fished Wyandotte today.  I didn't fare well.  Caught a couple that were just short of being keepers on jerkbait and tube.  Talked to one other that said he had caught about 10.  I was really wanting them to bite a moving bait, and they really wouldn't do it. 

 

I don't know what the name of the cove is but out from the mouth of the furthest northeast cove by the dam is where the hump and brush I'm talking about is at.

 

This brush is tough to get pictured right.  I can only really get it when I hit it from one angle.  This would be the pile that you are talking about.

Yep, that looks about right. No wonder it's so hard for me to find, it looks like a pretty small tree/pile. I've caught some really nice smallies off of it though. 

How deep is that brush pile? Looks like a tough one to pin point,

Depth is on right side of scale on first image. It's right on a break that goes from 10 to 30.

OK, sorry about that Super Fluke.  Guess I should look at the whole picture rather than just what I want to see.   LOL

Caught a few Rainbow Trout at Wyco today. After baking a couple with lemon and dill I remember why I rarely fish for them..........don't like the taste of them.

  1. im cooking mine now salt and pepper wrap them in bacon we will see how they come out

Hope yours turn out better than mine did. Did not like all the bones either. Crappie much more tasty and easier to clean.

Waste of Bacon!

It was actually really good but instead of using 4 or 5 pieces of bacon to wrap it I will put 1 piece inside the filet. bacon is more important to me.

sounds like it would taste better like a sushi bacon wrap with more bacon oh and dont for get to add more bacon!

Really it's best used as cutbait on the river. Or find someone with no tastebuds that loves the stuff and give it to them. 

out there throwing robo worm on drop shot got a few hits couldn't tell if it was trout or bass, that wind and rain was killer

Windy on wyco today. Couldn't find any bass. Did manage 4 trout in the 4 hours I was there.

man really those smallies should be blasting baits right now you would think i thought about going out there this weekend but probably fish melvern instead but keep trying man they should be ready to bust any time now

Tough day at Wyco. Thought the smallies might be biting, no such luck. Only managed a trout on a ned.

I'm fishing the Wednesday nighter tournament at Wyandotte this evening.....anyone else planning on heading out there?

Good Luck, with this cold spell it will probably be tough.

I live 5 minutes from the lake and fished it two nights ago when the cold front came through.  Believe it or not it wasn't terrible out there....we didn't do too bad on smallmouth.  Only 1 keeper, but when I'm fun fishing I just want to have that tug on the line haha.  I wonder how many boats will show up.

I live by Washington HS and fish Wyco quite a bit. Never done the wed nighters (no regular partner) but do catch quite a few smallies and LM there. Kinda focused or crappie right now(soon as it warms back up).

I've decided to break up with bass fishing for a trip or two and fish for crappie....havent fished Wyco much for them as I just recently got myself into a boat.  Is there a decent population in there?

Never have had a lot of luck there with crappie, caught a few but usually hit up Clinton or Perry when wanting to stock the freezer.

Lately Clinton's had the only hot crappie bite. Some big wipers being caught too.
