Would a bottom bouncer and floating rapala work in the deeper water for the wipers?
Attachment 180708Here is a screen shot of a large school of wipers that we had a ball catching with crankbaits. The larger one was 27 inches long.
Where are you getting 72.8 degree water?
That was a photo from last May. I finally figured out how to load a photo. Slow but persistant!Quote:

Jigging spoons in 20-26' of water was all we needed but I did get one of the white bass fishing a 3" wildeye shad very slowly.
Biggest was 5lbs 13ozs and in the 24" range. Got another buddy that is coming of the DL Thursday to hopefully get in on some of this action with me.

Our fillet table here is 2 2X12s screwed to a sheet of plywood for a size reference.

Slower morning yesterday but we got two big ones, mine was 6lbs 12ozs and my buddy caught his new personal best of 6.5 pounds, my dog approved :)

Back at it again in the morning when I get off work.

Which lake? Lol
Probably the last time I'll get on them but we tried again this past Thursday. Again managed to get our 4 fish limit with 2 just shy of 5 pounds and 2 knocking on 7 pounds. Pulled at least twice that many off for some reason or another. 1 little catfish and 1 little wiper were the only other 2 fish we caught.
