The last weekend was the classic and what a lousy weekend for it.The fishing was tuff trolling crankbaits put most of the fish in the boat there were fish caught shallow and deep with no dominant pattern .We had our best luck shallow on #7 jointed rapala,s in firetiger and#7shad raps in 9ft or deeper with chartruse working good when the sun shined and firetiger and gold black when cloudy.The bite was good before the weekend so I exspect when the weather warms and gets stable the lake is going to get good.The yellows were going good before the cool down so I exspect them to go as well when spring returns.Hopefully I can get a feild report in future when I thaw out

May 18, 2005 at 2:43 pm #363677Way to go Joe! Good report. What was the winning weight? Big fish? Good luck on Rathbun!
May 18, 2005 at 6:09 pm #363727The winning weight was 19# big fish sat. was 7# and we got a 6# on Sunday.If the weather was decent there would have been some big weights.I guess thats the challenge of tourny fishing not picking your days to fish but I can honestly say I am ready for some heat
May 18, 2005 at 11:12 pm #363802Atta boy Joe! Good to hear things are picking up. Good luck at Rathbun at the GNWC.
May 19, 2005 at 11:04 am #363897congrats on the finish. I couldn’t buy myself an eye.
Fished Sunday by myself. Trolled my butt off ended the day with a snaged bullhead
I guess thats fishing.
See you at Rathbun Good Luck
