    Default El Dorado Sunday May 6


    Fished El Dorado Sunday morning and ended up with only 7 crappie. All fish caught north of Sailboat cove. Yesterday they seemed to be about 4 to 5 feet, today it was best for me at 7 to 8 feet. I had 3 that were about 14 inches, the rest were 10 to 12 inches. All caught on jigs. Water temp 68 to 70.

    Fished Eldorado Friday off the bank for awhile and caught males in 1 to 2 FOW in back of coves on south end of lake. They had turned black but hadn't fanned a nest.There wasn't a mark on them at all. The spawn is slow but definitely started. Catching wipers and white bass off the dam at Cheney still.

    Upper EL Dorado in the I-35 bridge areas, If enough cars cruise by blasting Led Zeppelin "Whole Lotta Love" can greatly affect the spawn. I'm ready for the spawn to end and they move deep - I like the deep water thump and play em in slow with my ultralight rods.

    I hear ya Chatt, that's what we are doing at Pamona. Been paying off for us. Been better thru the week than the weekends. Don't know if it is the weather as much as the boat traffic. I know it is better for the captain of the (SS Minnow) thru the week than the weekends though. LOL
