Well I made one more trip to Shell thursday (5/25). Fishing was slow... Caught nothing at the boatramp, or that length of shoreline, so went over to the dam again... Nothing at the spillway, so moved down to the brick building that sits in the water in front of dam (What is that thing? I don't know what to call it) ...I started getting discouraged so I switched to crappie jigs and finally caught of all things a 15 inch catfish. I had some of that garlic/crawfish sticky attractant that comes in a tube on the jig, so I think that might have lured him in. I also caught a handful of blue gill, and 2 small saugeye from the walkway between the dam and that building. I missed something that thumped my crappie jig pretty hard... before I caught that catfish, so maybe that was his first try at it.
I talked to a guy that was there in a small boat and he reported that he caught a handful of bass, I think off rock bluffs. He said his big fish was about 2.5 Lbs.
