Heading to Pomme de Terre this weekend any ideas?

[DMW1960]

I know its going to be a mess with all these storms that are going to hit before the weekend. This is my first fishing trip in 3 years any ideas what to do on Pomme?

I was thinking the same thing about it being a mess. I plan on putting in at nemo or state park and sticking around 20 fow over brush. As it warms maybe try in the back half of haverstick around the timber. Not sure just a starting point.

Some how you read my mind. That or Bolivar landing working the backs of coves.

Dan, I ran up there for a little bit Saturday afternoon and it was tough. The water color from L-4 to Pittsbburgh was chocolate milk, the premium stuff, not the skim lol. We fished brush piles from 10ft of water to 40ft and I don't know what to tell you to get a bite. The few we had there was no pattern to them, just had to be ready when they hit it.

Yeah I figured the only way I was going to catch any fish is just jump over board and spear them! But the main thing is to check out the boat and check me out too. Boat hasn't hit the water in over 3 years. And with these new diabetic meds I am on sometimes just standing up is really fun. I have someone going with me that can handle my boat if I need it. I have some minnows and I have some old spots where I have done ok in the past in muddy water.

I was hopping someone would tell me about a hot spot! LOL!

When I used to live on Pomme the times I got in a boat to fish didn't matter what the conditions were. It was more the condition of my deep freezer and the lack of crappie in it. And that was when I had a 9.9 Merc and a 16 foot V Bottom Boat. My boat was so small that on windy days I would just drive around and launch in a cove to stay out of the wind and the main lake. There are some areas over around Nemo that I have good luck in the past with muddy water.

Since I got this Lowes 175 in 2008 I am not afraid to run from one end of the lake to the other. Been several times I would put in at the State Park Marina in Pittsburg and run down to Bolivar Landing. For some reason I just hate the drive into Bolivar landing.

Be careful, good luck and have fun!

The white bass are biting up around P16. Caught some nice ones today, only two keeper crappie though. Saw a gentleman yesterday come in with a nice stringer of whites. They were liking a small chrome shad imitation. If it rains a lot, that area will not be fishable. Hope you find some hungry fishes☺

I would say once you get there go ahead and drive another hour or so north and launch at Bucksaw. Then get the bobber rod out and cast the banks.
