Wed May 8th

Post by scoop »

3 clumsy guys fished from 5:30 to 4pm for approx 60+ fish. Most just under 2lbs. 16 over 2lbs with top fish at 3.5lbs. We got a few on the top but mostly later in the day. Bite seemed to get better for us later and quality definitely got better. Senko wacky and Texas rig was our main attack. Caught a few on a variety of other stuff but nothing stood out. The points in the main body of the lake produced best for us and better quality deeper 8-15ft. Lots of tiny fish on the banks that we didn’t count.Perfect weather and spectacular Barrett wildlife. There seemed to be a lot fewer boats as well but alot of yaks. Best action I’ve had in the past 4-5 years for sure although I usually get a couple of better quality fish. Hope this helps.

I have heard they are sending out fewer boats this year. Leaving as many as 8 on the dock. Just hearsay at this point. Going Saturday so will see.
