I think the DNR should do away with the 2 day creel limit allowed in posetion. You see alot of people use it to break the law for a single days catch. This guy will say that was 2 days catch and will...

I went out in the rain yesterday and found a little of everything except yellows. All the blacks I found were big with some small to medium size whites, grays and snake heads.

I have also caught a beer can that I hooked thru the hole in the tab, a lounge chair, rocks, a dead fish that was laying on the bottom and countless other things.

I have caught plenty of fishing poles over the years. I have even caught my own fishing pole after losing it overboard in 40ft of water. The most memorable pole catch was when I was drift fishing...

I forgot to mention we also found a few deer ticks on us already. Be on the look out!!

We went out on Sat. and found 20 or so blacks. Most were small, like you said, but there were a few good ones. There were even a few dried up! We never really looked for grays.They never seem to come...

We went out on Sat. First we hunted mushroom then we went fishing. We found 20 or so black sponge and caught a few fish. I went home got something to eat then went back out at dark and fished along...

So has anybody been finding any? I have heard of a few being found in this area and am planning a trip tomarrow.

Brookville is finally at summer pool. There is still alot of water coming into the lake so they are releasing quite a bit of water thru the spillway. There is a lot of mud in the water but the fish...

I went out today and caught a nice smallmouth that measured 18in. I also got a few white bass and crappie but it was still a tough bite for me. Water temps have warmed quite a bit. The main lake from...

You probably didnt miss much. I went out Tuesday and caught a few. I am still getting them on blades in 30-40ft of water off of points. There was no visible structure other than the point so I am...

The water temps are still getting warmer even with the cold weather we just had. I would add a degree or two to the previous posts. Some coves we visited were still 40 while most of the others were...

Last year I planned on fishing it but over slept. My dad was pissed but decided to give it another try this year. We went out yesterday and caught fish as shallow as 10ft on Jigs and as deep as 40...

I braved the cold and fished Brookville yesterday. I did a lot of motoring around trying to get an idea of what the crappies and bait fish are doing. I only managed maybe a dozen crappie but they...

New plugs, wires, and coils helped mine.

The problem with the shallow bite has been stable weather patterns. We get one or two 60 degree days to 4or 5 days of below average temps. That first batch of warm weather and rain after ice out I...

I went out Friday afternoon for about a half hour just to run the bugs out of the boat. There was a few boats and a few people on the dam, I would say fishing for walleye. Water temp at bonwell ramp...

I think it is hard to make a state wide regulation on crappie. What will work for one lake will not work for another. Some people fish for numbers and other people like to go out and catch slabs. I...

I think the ice should be off the lake by next week. Somebody drove there car out to the middle of the lake when it was real foggy Mon. morning. They hit the edge of the ice at the boat ramp at full...

We ice fished Brookville yesterday. The water was muddy do to all the runoff. The ice is still 4 to even 10 inches in spots but it has turned rotten. We managed some cats and crappies. Water temps...

I have noticed that your map zoom can affect the marks position. I will normally keep my map at 1/16-1/33 of a mile when I mark way points and returning to those spots. To see if this is your...

We fished the Mounds Beach out on the main lake at Brookville yesterday. The ice was still 8in on the main lake with a little bit of slush. Lots of shad swimming past our holes. We were hoping for...

I would say do what ever is working for that day. Normally I will troll the outside edge of the trees and inside of the trees. I will scout the timber with my SI and find tree tops that top out at...

I live in brookville and have been punching a lot of holes this year. The shallower early ice bite has died for me. It seems recently I have to be deeper than 40 ft to start marking and catching...

Adjusting the SI with the screen stopped when fish and structure is on the screen worked the best for me. When you do this you can see how each adjustment effects the picture. I like to use the blue...

SI is a search tool. You can cover 500 total feet of water in one pass vs 20 feet. Once you find and MARK fish and structure with SI, and your map, then you go over that spot with DI. A closer look...

You wont know for sure until you fish for them. Shad can grow just as big as crappie,so the size of the return dosnt mean anything. Shad dont suspend like crappie.That is why I will use traditional...

I think the bigger fish are the first to move shallow to claim spawning areas.

I think Feb is kind of a general time frame. It depends on how far north or south you live in the country. I would say it is more of shad based bite that comes when water temps start to rise in late...

What kind of baits did you use? I have seen this on my screen before in the winter. Thinking it was shad I threw my cast net over top of them. Big mistake! They turned out to be channel cats stacked...
