Submitted by Allen Haggard (ip 208.60.235.223)
Date Fished: 9/23/2001
Water Temperature: 70
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet Went camping from Thursday night til Sunday morning and had a great time. I fished each morning and every afternoon. Strippers were hitting live minnows in 15 Feet of water near drop off to 30 feet. Caught 9 nice crappie and saw plenty of fish in 30 feet of water, but they would not take the bait. Several small mouth were landed, but were small, guess that's why they are called small mouth? Brim, drum and cats were there too. By Sunday morning, I was not doing well. I moved to another drop off and ancored in 25 feet of water. I caught 35 nice brim as soon as the bugs hit the bottom. Funney, but each day they shut down at 10:00 AM. Those fish got a clock or something?
I would like to ask everyone to be consideriate when putting out gill nets. I ran into one in 4 feet of water. It took me almost an hour to cut my way out of it, and in the process I destroyed someone's expensive set up, not to mention the near damage to my boat and motor. The lake belongs to all of us. Think about boat traffic before you place that kind of device in shallow water.
