Winds were 15+ mph all day, so I headed out to the park. I kept the wind at my back and used a roll cast with my fly rod. I caught several small bluegills and two bass. Most of the gills were caught near the library. All were caught on a small white popper with my 6wt rod.
45 degrees on a Saturday morning. I waiting till around 1pm to go out to the lake when it was in the low 70s. The water temp was 67 degrees. Water was still stained from the previous rain.
Met two guys at the launch in a canoe looking for the creek. I gave them directions and went on my way. Didn’t find any crappie near any of my favorite spots. I did catch one white bass on a road runner in open water. I saw something chasing shad, so I just cast in the general direction.
I missed a small bass on a plastic craw, and caught another bass with the same craw. It was sitting in front of a tree in around three feet of water.
I’m going to bring some cut shad and possibly worms the next time I come back out here. Not having much luck with jigs.
Temp was 72 degrees, water temps were 56-59 degrees. Windy day, but I needed to get out. Water was stained and it was windy.
The first fish was caught on a white spinner bait. The bait was almost bigger than the fish. I was casting parallel to the bank in around 4 feet of water.
I jigged a few stumps, but didn’t find any crappie.
The two remaining fish were caught on a texas rigged plastic craw. These fish were caught around 10 yards apart, sitting next to the bank.
