Fished from my kayak on Lake Dunlap from 8am till 2pm. Fished the upper river and launched from the I-35 bridge. Got lucky and located some crappie just outside the launch wake zone. Picked up several nice crappie using a Crappie Magnet Chartreuse/Red jig. Also caught several nice Bluegill behind the first Island in 4' of water using Gulp Alive Maggots. Rounding out the catch were six bass in the 1 to 2 pound range. The bass were caught on White/Red Rooster Tails. All fish were released. The water was clear and the current was strong. Wind was strong so I did not go that far down the river. Saw only one bass boat. Good times on Dunlap.  Side Note: Lake Conditions will need to take a couple of days to improve after last night storms.  We needed the rain.

As always great report L.O. Enjoy those river lakes while you can. Summer time is right around the corner.

Great report as always Curtis. Will try to fish Dunlap a little more before the summer circus arrives.  Seems that the sunnies have moved into shallower water. Are you and your friends catching any Rios?  Again great post.

Vogey: The spawn is over. I am finding Crappie on both Mcqueeney and Dunlap in 8 to 15 feet of water by docks! I have caught Crappie a lot of times fishing the upper part on all of the river lakes. It's true I do catch most of them down river!

Been quiet for several days, so figured I'd give a bump for Dunlap in case someone had a report.
Just one more cast!
