Went to high rock yesterday and fished most major creeks at some point. Found a couple of very large schools that were biting very well. Prob. caught 70-80 but with very few of any size. Left them...

River was about the same at york hill this morning......don't be surprised if it is red this afternoon though sometimes it takes a while for the mud to come down the river.

How have most of you found deep brush piles? Learning from others? Spending time on the water? Putting them there yourself etc? Any advice would be helpful I need some help this time of year.

Pete,

Fished scond and Crane yesterday. Second was stirred up pretty bad. Crane was as Muddy as I've seen it until the Island where it started t clear up some. Water temp was 84.5.

You would be correct!

Bass fished there Sat. evening. Water looked like it was down 6 inches or so from where it had been. Water clarity was fair but some of he shallows were muddy from the carp carrying on. Might not...

I have had a 24 hour deep sea trip planned for about a year. I have leased the entire boat so we will not be crowded. I planned on taking 18 max but as the trip grows near a few have had to back...

Great report I have noticed a lot of the same.....fish scattered all over different depths but no real hot bite. Fished second for about three hours yesterday same type deal as what you found in...

Patients is a virtue this time of year at the ramps for sure. Put in yesterday at a private location but saw the crowds at the ramps. Must have been one great adventure.

Decided to put in today with the mind set of finding fish for a Sat. trip away from the boat lake traffic. Went up the river even though it is still flowing about 3,000 and stained. Found plenty of...

Went to the Rock put in at 3 p.m. at second creek. Took a little vacation so I have been off the water for about a week and a half so I spent the first 45 minutes or so just observing water clarity,...

Nice!

Awesome day especially for the conditions.

I love days like this:D

Meant to add these pics to previous post. Caught a cooler full by 9 a.m. nothing super big just good eaters until.....I won't go there anymore;)

Please do not take my post as a slight against weekend warriors I did not intend it that way just giving an update and report.

Ok...Ok...We had our cooler full by 9 a.m. that is the good thing. Fish were still deep on structure as usual but I can tell they are ready to make a run for the banks it is only a matter of days. ...

Yea I read a post that was very similar. Plan on being out there early tomorrow, if the conditions are close to yesterday I will prob. spend more time trolling and just cover a lot of water. Hope...

Its official, Jeff should have listened and put it in the Live Well after all. Thanks to all who helped settle this once and for all.

P.S. - He actually caught two the other is about an inch...

Fished the rock again yesterday. Fish tended to be more scatered than recent. Caught ruffly 50 but the dinks were more aggressive than the big boys. Kept 16 worth keeping. Bite was super...

I'm with you Pete! Fish was full of eggs as well very heavy. I told him he caught a trophy white bass. By the way nice striper catch on Norman!

Ok here is the scenario. Jeff and I fished High Rock last Sat. and caught some good crappie which many of you all have seen. By the way thank you for the kind comments. While we were fishing Jeff...

Practiced for a bass tourney a few days ago and water was good. Ran into a huge school of white bass in the area. Looked like you could walk across the water on them. Good Luck!

I spend a lot of fishing time this time of year in Second, Crane, and Panther creeks, occassionally Flat Swap if the main river channel is red.

Does anyone else ever notice that you can have plenty of nice crappie rods out and one cheap junk rod out and the nicest fish you catch always seem to bite on the old faithful wal-mart special? ...

I have tried this before when the bite has been tuff and I had to throw the kitchen sink at them to try and aquire a bite. I have not done well at all trolling with this type of lure mainly I...

Posted on Sunday but post was lost for some reason. My partner and I had a fairly good day on High Rock and left about 1 p.m. when the rain got a little too much. Caught about 80 crappie several...
