Subject: Beeds Lake, Iowa
Submitted by Iowabasser (ip 167.142.181.234)
Date Fished: 7/9/2005
Water Temperature: 78
Water Clarity: 1 foot Saturday was my first time fishing Beeds Lake. A friend of mine was over there camping with his girlfriend and told me to come over if I got the chance. We fished from about 11:00 am - 3:00 pm and caught about 10 bass in all. Biggest was about 14-15 inches, so not much size, but they seemed to be very healthy fish with a lot of fight. We also had a couple of really hard strikes that we think might have been northern pike. It was really hot out in the sun, and most of the fish were right up on shore, with most being in the shade. We wound up catching all of our fish on senko style baits. My friend used a red shad colored senko and I used a white 3x strike king zero worm. That was about all they would hit. We also tried texas rigged plastics, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits, but the weightless worm was all we could get them to hit. Still, not a bad day for now knowing the lake at all. Also, for a Saturday, there was hardly any boat traffic. I think we saw a total of three other boats when we were on the water. That makes it much nicer when you're not having to battle people for fishing spots. Try out Beeds lake if you get the chance.
