From the North Shore at 1.5 mm. Fairly aggressive bite this morning until about 9:30. Worked some productive spots with various water depths from the docks using blue/white, white/chartreuse and purple/white. Most were still 6-10 below lake level. Water temp about 67 degrees.
Now for the bad news. Still threw back about 4 or 5 for everyone in the 10-13 range that ended up in the basket. But, who cares? The weather's great and I'm not at work!

sounds like a great day, but they all are when your fishin.
Jacpot, I am heading down this weekend with a guy from work and want to get him on to some fish. We will be out all day Saturday, but it sounds to me like they might slow down after 9:30 or so? I'll be in the Buck Creek/Gravois Area. Were you fishig from the docks or from a boat? Also when you say 6-10' below lake level are you saying 6-10' down in various depths? Are they really shallow early? Any help would be appreciated, and I'll report back on Monday.
should be a good weekend to be out
Nice......when are you going to bring some of those slabs home for your buddies?:):):)
Get after em fellas......the fun has begun!!!!!
Mike, I do fish from the docks over somewhat deep water, so out there on the Gravois your experience may be different. Yes I found them about 6-10' below the water surface. We're typically fishing in 20-28' of water. That just happens to be where some there is some cover or where they run along pathways.Quote:

Hey, pack up the family and get down here. May even be able to catch a green carp by accident. http://www.extremefunnypictures.com/...bout_smile.gifQuote:

Jackpot, thanks for the info. i have a buddy who says they're catching them in Mill Creek with good success. Last time I was down was on the 11th and 12th. We did decent, about 15 keepers on Saturday and some dinks Sunday morning. I would like to be able to fish on more people's docks, because you can really get in there and pull 'em out when you can stand there rather than being on a boat. I know I can catch them on my dock where I have structure down that you would have a hard time getting to from a boat. Well we'll see what happens and I'll let you know on Monday. Thanks again.
