So what's the fishing been like this week?

Alright boys I am getting on a plane in a few minutes to come home from my work trip in Boston. I took this 6am flight so I could get on the water this afternoon for 3-4hrs. I hope to skip out on work a little tomorrow morning and for sure will be heading out Monday. Anyone catching fish?

[Chadku]

Well it's good to know that no one is catching fish. My flight left and an hour into the flight we had to turn around bc of a landing gear problem. Not gonna be home in time to even go today. It's always good to arrive at the airport at 4am to only get home at 6pm..atleast I hope.

Chad haven't fished since Sunday, but if I were going to go, Pamona would be tops on my list.

Chad i think all the lakes are producing right now. Reports of good sizes in 18" to 17' of water are common. The numbers are the sporadic part.
Hey Chiefspellcheck if your going to rape a lake walk away with all the cash you should at least be able to spell the lake your on.

Gosh, the Chief probably caught his fish at John Redmond and weighed in at Pomona, them folks in the printing buisness can't read or spell!

[chiefmoochachew]

Just need more customers like me, then I would have it made.

Think I will head to Perry tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up on Pomona. Will prolly head there Monday.

I fished Perry Lake over the weekend and did OK. I had about 2 over 13". Still had to work hard to boat 10 keepers. I couldnt get a bite without a minnow on. Brush and rocky breaks where the shad are holding.

Doug and I fished Pomona today from daylight till 5 pm. The breakfast at Green Acres was a high light for the day as expected.

Moochachew must have put a hurt on the lake and didn't leave many there last Sunday but we did manage a few.

We caught 60 total with 15 that we kept. We started out in the 110 arm dipping minnows in the timber. We caught a few short and only one keeper there.

Since my repertoire of waypoints are nil on Pomona we spent some time trying to find new waypoints. Only got three new waypoints marked and only one more keeper caught.

We ended up with our count working a point near the dam dragging heavy jigs around a point. I started catching some with tandem jigs (3/8's and a 1/4) with various plastic baits on both rods. Tried just putting minnows on one rod without plastic and that worked some but it was a sure thing to loose the other minnow every time a fish was caught. Ended up just using a single 3/8's oz with minnow on one rod and kept the tandems on the other rod with plastic. Both rods caught keeper fish with perhaps the minnows catching more fish total but not sure the minnows were better for catching the keepers.

The fish were caught at 15 ft depths where they were showing up on the graph.
