Hey! It works!

Hit Murray with my kayak today as a cold front set in. The cool air blowing across the lake make me think like I was fishing on a cold February day...ha ha I did not have much success as I only caught a couple dinks on a small spoon and a small bass on an underspin and that was it. I had one other ...

First of all, thanks to whomever saw the need to start this new site! It is very much appreciated!

As many of you know I frequent Sutherland on most Fridays. This year I am attempting to fish an entirely differently lake. It is 40 feet deeper that the lake I fished in the fall! On the opener the ...

Little striper...

Been a good couple of weekends. Can’t wait for the next couple
Of months. Going to be good with all this water.

The heartbreak is you get turned around on the quagga mussel inspection 90% of the time from a ridiculous reason. Example, a eucalyptus leaf that fell in your boat the morning you drove up and you missed it. Or condensation.

After much praying on the way there, we passed the inspection. What a ...

Hit Murray this morning(like you guys did not see that coming...ha ha) and it was cool and overcast. I heard of a few topwater stirrings from my buddy Larry who wrangled in some recent topwater bass, so I was ready. It is still a little early for topwater and should be going off a lot better as we ...

Water is up ALOT. Still using primitive boat ramp, old pavement loop. Water is close to original ramp
Bingo, we have a couple winners. Not big bear.

Water 70+- and so GREEN!!!!! The whole lake!!! Visibility 6" at best.
Boated 3 males in the junk. Be a month before it's, at least, somewhat clear.

Dixon Lake update on Bass. This fish had a few eager friends, but she was the most photogenic. I was just walking the shore pounding along with a #7 Rapala and they were very cooperative. I'd like to say that's a surfcasting rod and she was huge, but it's really about a 20" fish, which is still a ...

I got to the lake at sunrise, expecting to see the regulars out on the water already...but no, I was alone. That tells you how tough the fishing is and the high water has made launching and parking a real challenge. I keep expecting the lake to go off every week, but it's still not happening! I ...

Fished the sweets a couple of times last week just to get some fishin in. Not a constant wide open bite with the bites coming every so often mostly due to the fact I was using heavier gear.That overgrown brush due to the water being higher eats the light line stuff and snags easy.

Baits that worked ...

Well for the first few hours it seemed like bad business as usual at the old lake. Just cold and rainy! The game plan was to throw a buzz bait through flooded brush. If that failed, a spinnerbait through flooded brush. I just knew they had to be in flooded brush! Well, if they were, they were not ...
