Fishing one more time in the AM tomorrow. Looking for 125 keepers.

Today was greatness. Topwater action everywhere.

6 people on my boat today and got a 6 man limit ( minus 2, miscounted ).

So we left the lake with over 400 fish landed and 148 Sandies for the fryer.

No pattern today. They were everywhere. Even main lake. When they would stop boiling, they would hold at 10 ft in the deeper water.

Sorry. I'm not in the mood to line up 148 Sandies today, for a picture.

The fish get a break now for five days. Goin to Vegas again.

DANG IT!! I wish i was not working today . I would have loved to have gotten in the middle of that

sounds like a great time, wish they were biting like that last Saturday! I did learn the beat of the warriors drum though, makes em bite!

.....X2

no invite bro?

Count went up to 149 after it was all said and done.

Lavon was dead tonight.

I spite of skiers managed 63 trolling dam with hell-pet at 20 ft. Include 3 catfish to 4lbs.

A couple days ago the skiers were out at 630am skiing. They would ski right through a school and the Sandies would start boiling back up within seconds. They r super aggressive and feeding hard on the 1 inch baby shad schools. U can tell by the explosions of Sandies boiling, how big they r. If ur in a small dink school, move to another boil till u see bigger explosions. We saw two Stripers chasing down a gizzard the other day. Pretty cool to see them fighting over it. The gizzard was launching a foot out of the water about 5-6 times before one of the Stripers consumed it.

Where have you been seeing them school up? I have only seen minimal schooling action. Did pretty good by the power plant last week. Bite started off really slow. ****PEOPLE BEWARE, DO NOT TIE UP TO THAT BUOY, =INSTANT CITATION****

the buoy yes, but what about the fence that slowly sinks down into the water? Been tying up to that for years with no problems. have ALWAYS killed the sandies from there, and sometimes the crappie gang up there as well, not to mention some pretty hefty LMB's. I was tied up to one of those fence posts(metal) one day and talked to 2 GW's, for quite a long time, and they never said it was a problem.

I guess it depends on the GW Lovdldx, as long as you are not past the "imaginary line"

Fish were blowing up everywhere today. They didn't really start boiling till 830 ish. Then they stopped at 930-10am ish. It's dink fest out there, so if ur in a dink school, move to the next boil till u see or catch some bigger mags. I got a limit (25) of Sandies that were all 14-16 inches. Caught 100's of 8-11 inchers.

I was throwing a topwater and the small ones would just try to eat the hooks on it. Some people think they are tring to eat the whole lure. Not correct. The dink whites and yellow bass are not hitting your lure, they are trying to eat your shiny little hook that looks like a minnow to them. To shy away from the dinks and yellows, switch out your hooks to the duller colored hooks. Your dink ratio will probably go down 75%. I also add a bronze single hook to my slabs, instead of a treble hook. Way faster unhooking the fish, a little safer for humans -that decide to hook themselves, less wear and tear on the dinks or the fish your releasing. Those treble hooks destroy the little guys and rip them up pretty bad.

The amount of 8-10 inchers is amazing, from what I saw today during the boils. Next year 10-11 inchers is going to be easy.

Again, I was using 12 lb Berkley Big Game/ 1/4 oz slab chartreuse/ saltwater steel hook size 1 with a Thump Buddy Jig 18 inches above it.

The fish boiled everywhere today. All over the lake. Mainly around the island and at the dam. But I saw them and caught them all the way North near the timber.
