Are they on the banks yet at Truman? Been wanting to get out this weekend.

Is there any spots with enough ice to ice fish on Truman right now? Been wanting to get out, cabin fever is killing me. Thanks!

Yes, there's one up north near Plattsburgh I think and one near Trimble? But some of those free ramps are very shady. Trucks have been broken into and damaged or tires slashed. A body was found at...

Just an fyi it'll cost you $17 to launch your boat and park your truck at any of the park's ramps.

The lake is up 20 or so feet. It can be outright dangerous to get on plane in a boat out there. A lot of trees and debris are floating around.

I don't know. I've never had much luck when the water is this high at Truman. So why not just head somewhere else that's not as flooded. Yea I may get lucky and find them in the first spot I check,...

Looks like they'll be spawning in the parking lots at the ramps.:cheers2

FilletMaster, were those caught yesterday or last week?

Unless the op unloaded the fish in his truck or cooler somewhere, it would've been illegal to add anymore crappie into that livewell full of crappie that were caught at LOZ. So if they caught 15 each...

They were spawning last night for sure. All over the banks. This rain and cold front probably sent them deeper or further out from shore most likely. Seems like it's gonna be awhile until we get any...

We don't keep anything under 10, and we were keeping maybe 1 out of every 5 or so.

I don't know how y'all are fishing, but we killed it at Truman tonight fishing from shore. I was using 3 rods 2 with minnows and 1 with a jig and I couldn't keep up, so I had to put my minnow rods...

So in theory, the fish should be lining up to jump in your boat today. Not every season you get conditions that are this favorable.

Honestly, you go fishing whenever you can. But if I was a...

I do best when the moon is straight over my head whether it be day or night. A dropping barometer is good too. As is right before a storm, the uglier the storm coming, the better the bite. After the...

We were catching them by the dam a few days ago, but had to weed through many, many dinks to get keeper sized ones. Wasted too many minnows, so we went elsewhere.

Yea, I don't know what the big deal is with giving out a report. I mean some of the best fishermen out there (guides/pros) normally have nothing to hide. They give information freely and without...

You must be one of those guys that are SOL if someone stole your fishing spot. rotfl:Rofl

Seems the only fishing getting done is by Kansascrappy. He seems to be all over Kansas with the number of reports he's putting up. So are you guys not fishing or just keeping it a big secret that...

Some guys have there honey holes that they've found over the years and those holes can be good all year or only at certain times of the year. I know I have some honey holes that can get hot under the...

I had the same experience. Catch 2 or 3 in one spot then nothing. Had to keep moving. Went to bucksaw first, saw the parking lot and turned back around to sparrowfoot area. Fishing different coves...

We were killing them right before the storm hit. It's been slow since then.

Yea I'm never sure if it's the water temp or the length of daylight that triggers the spawn.

I have a couple days to get out this week and was wondering if they are on the banks yet at Truman? I know in Kansas they've been catching them on the banks this past weekend and so I was wondering...

Yes, you are correct. I think I just fish too many lakes with minimum lengths for wipers like Thomas Hill and Long Branch. Truman falls under the statewide regs it appears.

Nice wipers Jeff! Those must've been fun to catch. Looks like quite a few boats were out there too?

That larger one in that net with the broken stripes looks a lot like a wiper. Hope he was 18 inches if he was a wiper.

Hmm...If I was second place, I'd call for a re-weigh. There must've been an extra drop of water on that scale for the other team that won. lol.

If you wanna catch a few fish, you almost have to find the crowds because that's most likely where the fish are. But if you just want to get away and relax on the water, stay away from the dam area...

Bet your thumb is worn out. Nice mess of fish.

The water is very high this year and has the crappie scattered all over the lake because of all the new available cover from flooded shorelines (weeds, timber, rocks, etc). So yes it fishes much...
