Some are moving and working shallow. I caught five late yesterday afternoon in 7-9FOW. Didn't catch any in 15-20, but also didn't catch any on blow downs on the bank.

That's my old stomping grounds. Granted I haven't fished that end of the lake in several years. You can run back up river into Clouds Creek. There's some stumps and brush up there. Check some of...

I'm going to be keeping records as well starting around Thanksgiving. Someone earlier referenced the cyclical nature of lakes, and I think we are in one of those cycles on Wylie. From 2016-2019 the...

My dad got on the board last week in Ohio. We’ve had this deer on camera the last two years and he finally came into bow range. Checking scrapes right at last light. Steep angle...

Friday afternoon started shallow and picked at a few, mostly small. Changed it up and started trolling in 20-25FOW. Size increased but bite was slow. Ended the day trolling through 12-16FOW and that...

The wife and I went last Wednesday and and caught several in the 9-10” range up shallow. All of the big girls were still in the creek mouths in 12-15FOW

I have and will continue to bang the drum of "everyone operating a boat should have to have a boaters safety course." There are some great free courses online for people to take. I know NC you have...

Not much to report. Stayed in Stumpy Creek. Fish were scattered and not much in the way of bait schools. Did manage to bring home 6 that were in the 10-11" range. All fish were caught in in 42-46...

They are fun to hunt, but if you are in tight quarters, they can be on you and you'll never know it. First one I ever called in I shot at 10 steps. He was crawling through some broom straw and never...

Behind Goat island in about 43-45FOW. Birds were working on the flat behind McClean. About 150 yards south of where the south fork meets the main channel.

Never heard that one. There are several good YouTube videos of make your own descending devices. Most are for offshore, but if you’re not comfortable on how to properly vent a fish, they are a great...

Yea, I checked a few creeks on Sunday and didn’t see anything worth stopping for. However, it looked like a boat show in Crowders, so something must’ve been biting.

Put in at SouthPoint Sunday and drove way down the lake checking brush piles as I went. Couldn’t find fish holding to structure. Ran into a guy (who I believe is on this forum) and gave me a heads up...

I think you're right on the perch and lack of bait. Spots aren't going to help matters either, especially, if you see the population explosion like you have on lakes like Norman. Doesn't help...

Well crappies wouldn’t bite. Trolled some usually good spots, came up empty. Saw two brush piles that had fish on them, decided to tight line. Nothing!!! Ran down the lake, made it past the sandbar...

I'll add too that for anyone that's saddle hunting, consider adding an additional bridge that's about 1.5" longer than your primary. If for whatever reason your primary fails, the second will catch...

I think you're going to be around 160. The mass he's carrying especially on his left side is gonna help a lot! Congrats!!!

The temp drop Friday into Saturday should have them on their feet.

The first weekend in April would be a good choice. Some of us will be putting the rods down to chase turkeys around the woods for opening weekend. Meaning a few less boats on the water.

Had a buddy in Charleston try taking a banana on his boat one time. He blew the powerhead on a 140 Zuke on the way back in, about 35 miles from the jetties. Long slow ride back with the other motor...

We hooked our first one on Wylie this summer trolling, but the hook pulled straight after about 5 minutes of back and forth. I hope they don't get too established on Wylie, I remember fishing Murray...

Yea Dieter Melhorn turned me on to the chicken thing. Cut it into chunks and let it sit overnight in Strawberry Jello powder or Garlic Powder. There’s another YouTube channel, I think it’s Fishing...

We had the parents in town this weekend and they wanted to try this catfish on chicken thing. We had a slow start first thing fishing SOBB. Picked up and ran NOBB and found some decent blues on a...

They are pretty scattered right now. The last couple times out I've found fish south of South Point in 20-25 FOW and about half way down the water column. There is a ton of bait hanging around flats...

If you want perch, go up in front of the new Marina they are building in Catawba Creek. They are thick up there. At one time last weekend we had all 8 rods w/ perch on them at the same time. There's...

Jigs tipped with minnows. Silver and Chart and white and chart were better colors.
