    Default Harris 10/12


    Had a good day with white perch, crappie, and cats including 2 that were pushing 10 lbs. Fish were a bit deeper than I expected. i started the day in 12-15 with no luck. I remembered noticing the bait in deeper water so I eased out and started catching white perch then eased out a little more and found more crappie. Around 11 the bite turned off completely for me and a near by boat. Even the white perch shut down. I finally got back into them around 1:00 in even deeper water and it was almost pure crappie.

    Nice. I did a little striper fishing on Hickory Sunday and also noticed the bait was all very close to the bottom there as well. Must be that cold front that moved through. Pulled a little for crappie before my trolling motor died. Caught everything but crappie. Smallmouth, Largemouth, even perch, but no crappie. I bet they were on the bottom with the shad.

    Bluegras, Marked a few stripers, but only got one to bite. New boat is trolling a little fast. going about 4 mph. I really like about 2.8 to 3.2. I am making a few small drift buckets to toss out. Stripers were out on the flats in about 25 foot of water.

    Are they in coves, or main lake, points, or everywhere I'm planning to go Thursday, don't get to go much now-adays I don't mind hunting for fish but a head start never hurts!

    They have been right inside the mouths of the big coves, but Sunday they had moved out of the coves holding on flats in front of main lake points. Anywhere there was a change in depth, the shad and stripers were there. Food luck.

    Crappie were in the main lake. Perch were in both the creek mouths and main lake. Go deeper than you expect.
