I caught a 10.3 LMB right smack in the middle of scenic Point Marina many years ago. We hired a guide to fish for stripers and it was mid February. Water was an absolute mirror and very cold. The guide told us we were going to try some thing different before we went out for the stripers. Hooked up a rig similar to a crappie rig and fished right off the end of one of the marina bays for the large cabin cruisers. It was 28 Ft of water and we were in some trees. It was almost like dead sticking nowadays and the rod slowly started gently going up and down. Thought I hooked a tree. Guide told to reel it up and slowly so what looked like a giant white mouth opened up coming straight to the surface. Zero fight so far. Came to the surface, jumped once gently, we better her and releases gently immediately afterwards. She looked evacuated to me and he said in a month or so, it probably would’ve gained a couple of pounds. He said the big females move into the area and stock up getting ready for the spawn early. It was quite an experience catching something like this by accident.

They must have found that hydrilla.

I caught a 9.3 two weeks ago out there crappie fishing in 42' of water on a deep dock. Actually caught 3 bass off that one dock that day that would have went 17-18 lbs. Amazing what an 1/8oz jig can produce. Oh and had two limits of crappie in under 2 hours on that same dock.

Is there a fish camp or marina with lodging at PK?

What a dock!!!

Plenty of places to stay, especially in the winter time

While we are at it whitney has a new lake record...... they are everywhere so just stay home and go fishing
