I'm sure the fish are there, I have friends that have been txting 30lb pics. I understand they don't bite all the time! I saw the Rangerman on that ramp lol. Sitting off to the side aways too. Ill be back. Btw ive never seen beavers that big! I thought I was staring at a retard dog till it jumped in an splatted the water with its tail.

well i went this morning

had high expectations -- but was sadly suprised

found a ton of baitfish by the island on the boat ramp side but could not get a bite to save myself !

Today was a lot tougher bite. Only had one over 7 and only caught about 10 total. All on cr around the island.
King I don't get it. How can you tell a guys age while driving by and then refer to him as an old guy?

Its easy, Lots of gray, and a lot of patience to sit in one spot that long lol.

King maybe your getting a title old yourself and need to get glasses. The gray you saw was my Simms sun mask and staying in one place for a while don't mean your old it just may mean you were catching fish and not having to run all over the lake looking for them.

Merry Xmas TMAC.

Somerville bass has bounce back really good on bass. I don't target them but catch them by accident on almost every trip I've been up there this year. Yesterday I must of pull in over 15 nice bass in one spot caught by accident. I was throwing a KVD crank bait in chartreuse color over a ledge that goes 5-7' shallow then drop off to 15'. They were stacked up all along on top of that ledge. I think they were soaking in the warm weather ? Water temp climbed up to 59 degrees yesterday. I was targeting white bass but kept getting hooked up on bass. I've never seen such a large concentration of good size bass in one location. I would say if you ain't catching them you proably looking at the wrong area. Just a few weeks ago I caught a fat one by accident hangging out in 15' fow next to some stump structures. All them bass was hitting the crank bait on a moderately slow retrieved.












And the cycle of life begins again.

Btw I also notice some of those spotted bass are developing egg sacks. Some of the sacks looks semi mature ready. Interesting observation such a big fish but looks to have smaller egg sacks compare to them smaller whites.

Looking good Bruce

Bruce, good to see you over here and not on 2Fool

You're a fish catching wildman Bruce!

Will the ongoing rain affect fishing in the lower lake? I have minimum experience with Somerville. Thanks
