ARE WE GONNA GET REPORT TODAY FROM SHAWN Z?

Don't start it Fishen.

I LIKE THIS THREAD.

HECK HE GIVEN EVERYTHING BUT THE KEYS TO A BOAT.MUST KNOW IF HE PUT IT TO USE.

I was thinking the same thing... I live and work from home above Harbor Bay and it was killing me looking out there today. He had to have caught some! Wind cooperated today.

Guys, I got to Rayhub by 7:00, was about to launch boat off the public boat ramp off hway 30, it was shut down. We finally launched at chandlers landing, very nice marina, but it is not $5 per day stated online, it is $10, but very nice location near what I think is the power plant and the dam. As soon as we left the no wake zone the finder started to pick up fish, at about 18 ft. I have a humming bird, and it shows fish in 4 sizes, shad, small, medium, and large. We stopped and fished at 21-23 feet just outside of the no wake zone. I was slow rolling dual sassys and my buddy a rooster tail. Not a nibble. Tried what I believed to be " dead sticking" nothing. After about 30 min, we moved south west towards the plant, picked up tons of fish at 28-30 feet fished same techniques, but adding live bait. Nothing,. Moved south again about 200 yards from the dam tons of fish again on the finder. No bites. It was 11 am when we headed in. Fish 2- us 0. They were there for sure, just can't get them to bite. Will try again this weekend. Any questions I would gladly answer. But it was a great sight seeing trip. Thank you

Frank, on one occassion I had a monster bite, after 5 seconds of fighting the tree bass won.

If you would have drove down the "trail" thats where I have been launching my boat.. I am planning on going Saturday with my new slabs and other junk... May need to find a grenade from the sounds of it though. LOL

Shawn, you were on the right track down by the dam. If you
Are marking fish, you have to put the lure at their depth, almost in their face!

Don't give up, if you hear of a bunch of us local guys going
Out, come out and join the fun. We kinda put out a group fish finding party!

It normally works one way or another. Glad you got on the water.

Mike

Shawn , if I am reading correctly you said your graph marks 3 differant size fish ? If it looks like this picture


That's not going to help you much . Anything in the water will show up as fish . You you can change the settings on the graph to remove the "fish symbols" you want your graph to look like this

WAS OUT THIS EVE.WED. GOT AROUND FISH PRETTY FAST .A NEW BATCH OF BIRDS HAS ARRIVED SO THERE WAS SOME THAT WAS WANTING TO EAT.HAD LOTS OF FISH ON THE GRAPH BUT THE CATCH WAS SLOWER THAN NORMAL.STILL PICED UP SOME NICE HYBS ,COULD HAVE CAUGHT A LOT OF SANDIES BUT THEY DON'T REALLY INTREST ME WHEN I KNOW THERE ARE HYBS AROUND .HYBS CAUGHT ON 4"SASSY SLOW TROLLED . SMALL SLAB WORKED REAL GOOD FOR SOME GOOD SANDIES.NOBODY ELSE WAS ON THE SAME SIDE OF LAKE AS ME.
ANY BODY WANTING TO TAKE THE CHANCE GIVE ME A CALL FOR A TRIP.

It killed me too as I drove to work...I hope the wind is good in the morning. I'll be on the water around 9:30.

Yaffe may see you out there this afternoon. Will look for you...

JV, How do I put it on the " MAN graph" on this humming bird?
