Hi guys,

Brand new to the forum. Lovin it so far.

Going out this weekend to Pomme De Terre for a family get together/fishing trip (for me). Was curious if anyone had suggestions on what they're biting on and/or how deep they're sitting right now. Any and all help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

A 5 pounder in the water is a 3.5 in the boat, just saying. Ask the BA.  I'm not saying it wasn't a 4 or 5 tho.  I'll never forget shauer saying "drum, no smallmouth that's my PB, a 5 pounder" weighed 3lb 5oz. lol

<5 boat flip! Exception: spinning gear and jerkbaits with light line.  I've seen more fish lost trying to net it than boat flipping, but we can argue that all day long.

I did that at the vern when you and I were there in March. I thought I had my PB smallie when I set the hook, turned out to be just another almost 4 pounder.

I'll agree to agree with your disagreement of his agreement....... 

I boat flipped this with a 7' M spinning rod and 8 lb mono with a 78 pointer. I realized what I had just done after I picked the fish up, was easily 4 pounds. I don't do that anymore, luckily I didn't learn the hard way.

No Ryan sorry a 4 pounder in the water is a 3 in the boat. Sorry looks 3.

The usual. Clinton trips and a Clinton tournament on Sunday. I'm not saying DJ and I are gonna win, but we're probably gonna win.

I know, problem is I didn't weigh it because that was our paper tourney at melvern a few years ago. It was my fifth cast in a row catching a fish off that spot and I was in a hurry to get back to fishing. I'm pretty sure it would have been my PB smallie if I had weighed it.

Didn't get enough love from gardner on Tuesday?

Just want to take the kayak out. I guess I could take it to Olathe instead, or cedar lake.

I'm thinking about spring hill lake

Thinking about taking the kayak to Richmond Lake

I'd pick Gardner again given those options. Or go find one good fish at Cedar.
