    Default Lake Lou Yeager ?


    Anyone have information on Lake Lou Yeager in Litchfield? I've been thinking about going there as it's a short distance for day trips?

    Hillsboro lakes have lots of small crappie. You can load up on 7 to 9 inch fish. Rarely catch any over 10. I fished Glenn shoals today with no luck. It seems like we are about 3 weeks away from good crappie there. Water temp was 55 to 57

    Fished Lou Yeager Thursday caught several fish between 8 and 11". They were 4 to 5' deep in 17' of water. Water temp was about 49 on south end and 52 on north end.

    Not many big fish in Lou but plenty of eaters 9-10". Try main lake lay downs and docks. You will have to weed through small ones but you can definitely get a good mess. No limit on # of fish.

    I went up to Yeager on Friday. Including myself only 4 boats on water and nobody was catching anything. Wind was terrible, but nice lake. I will be going back once the weather allows.
