So howd yall do at Dunlap? Ive been fishing McQueeney about twice a week for the past 2 months and its starting to get really slow. Catching alot of small bass. So since it has been so slow ive been doing some crappie fishing and limiting out everytime I go out hahaha. Fun fishing on an ultra light. Havent been to Dunlap in about 2 months so was wondering if anyone has a report? Thanks guys appreciate it

the day I was out there was the morning right after that full moon was out bright as could be all night. It was actually the slowest day I have ever had on Dunlap. I caught 7 or 8 but nothing with much size to em....2.5# being the largest. The bluegills and shell crackers were all over the pace hitting everything. I probably should have gone small and targeted them.

I fished the weekly Sunday morning jackpot out there this past Sunday and it was slow for everyone. Only 6 of us showed up, but 6lbs won with 3 fish. I think everyone had at least 1 keeper, and most of us had 2, but the winner had 3 keepers. No fish of any size and everyone said that they had caught a few dinks each.

Suprisingly, I had a much better day on Canyon by far the week before and planning on hitting up the Wednesday night tourney out there this evening.

Hey tamale, r these every sunday? How much? Ramp? Hours? Thanks

Yes, every Sunday from 6:30am (or safe light) till noon. Peeps usually start showing up at 6-6:15am and start launching.
Launch and weigh in is under the I-35 bridge.
Entry is $15/man. It's an individual tourney but you can fish 2 from a boat.

Last yr there was on average 15 boats I'd bet (25 entry's with some being close to 20-25 boats and 30 entry's, at least all the ones I fished.

It's winner take all and I recall last year one pot reached close to $400.

Did somebody say bluegill and shellcrackers? Heading out tomorrow for some panfishing. Any particular patterns/areas for the panfishies?

Not sure of a pattern, but they seemed to be everywhere and very active poppin the surface a lot...maybe hittin those mayflies.

good luck!

I went last Sunday for a couple of hours. Launched at Schumans ( thanks guys ). Spent most of my time playing with my new LSS-1 ( its AMAZING ). Caught three dinks but had a GREAT time. Not much boat traffic on the lower end of the lake and that in itself was worth the trip. I caught all three on a parrot colored Rapala crankbait.

Hey Tamale, can you give a guy some help on where/how to fish Dunlap? I just throw my tacklebox at them and see what they hit! No rhyme or reason lol...

I started fishing Dunlap by "junk fishing". Then, I narrowed it down to buzzbaits, pitching a jig/craw, pitching a wacky weightless 5" Senko, and casting KVD 1.5 and 2.5 cranks.
I've only caught ONE big fish, and the rest have been this size:

I caught my PB at Dunlap. She went 8lbs15ozs! Caught her on a PopR in about 3ft of water! Things have gone downhill since then! I keep trying though! Sounds like I'm throwing the same stuff as you Cloud Dancer! I might want to change to something they aren't used to seeing!

I dont know man. Last year it seemed you could go just about anywhere, throw the jig and catch a 7 pounder. This yr is a totally different story. We need current.

We need rain!

last year there was a flood and the lake was closed to boat traffic for a month or so
