First Trip to LL for the season

Finally got the boat on the water for the first time this year. Launched out of North Lake Park and wow its been awhile since I have seen the water that high. The docks at both ramps are under water.

Saw a few of the guid boats land a hybrid or two using live bait, but I never did get a bite myself. Hit a number of mid lake humps and points and didnt see much to even drop a slab on. Did a bit of chuncking and winding up shallow also and Nada. Hope you guys had better luck then I did.
Good luck out there and be safe.

The fishing has been poor for quite some time on LL. They will hit bait and I have witnessed it being done. The artificial bait fishermen like me have been struggling. That is the reason I have switched to another local lake. Look for a report Monday morning. Had an excellent day today.

Good. More for me after mid-May

Ryan, try much shallower water. Like, 1'-3' deep along windblown shorelines with rattletraps or humdinger type lures. You might get a few surprises.

live bait is producing but not in quantity. Ive seen others and had moderate luck myself in 20-30FOW on points. I went out on Saturday evening and fished with artificials and didn't get bit. I tried shallow with tail spinners and deep with slabs but couldn't get bit. I ended up throwing square bills in the marina and landed a single black bass about 1.5 lbs. LL will turn on soon.

Was out Saturday mid day and got skunked
