A lot of new inflow coming in yesterday. Lake went from murky to muddy where I caught them Monday. Bite was tough yesterday.
Had some buddies fish yesterday and they ended up with 15 nice crappie in 4 to 10 fow on minnows around Osage Cove area. Said the bite stopped around noon.
With the lake level up, down and muddy with a lot of inflow, we have been fishing for blues the last couple of weeks and catching a ton of fish up to 30 lbs on rod / reel. Was running my locator one day this week looking for shad along a ledge and found what I thought was a large school in about 12 fow. Threw my net and had over 100 1 to 2 inch crappie. Dumped them back in the water moved down a ways and same thing. This school was over 30 yds long and all small crappie. Must have been thousands in the school. Never seen this before. Don't know if it was this years spawn or last years but the future looks good.
That's great news. With the upcoming week scheduled for a good chance of rain every day the yoyo water levels doesn't look like its going to get any better.
Might have to visit the "secret fishing hole".
Here we go again fellas. This is todays lake level and inflow charts. They are gonna use these from this spring to design a new roller coaster. Got hammered with heavy rain last night Kansas got a ton. Happens every Memorial weekend.
On a more serious note fellas anybody coming to Kaw this weekend to fish or play PLEASE BE CAREFUL! Tried to go up in the river yesterday and had to turn around because of all the debris coming down. It is going to be dangerous on the north end of the lake this weekend. A lot of big trees etc. coming down. All it takes is one big log just under the surface. Stay safe
I usually park my boat during the memorial weekend, as well as the other major summer/fall holidays.
The people that boat once a year seem to show up during those holidays.
That's the best thing to do. Seems like if they have anything that floats it is out there. Funny how many people back their boat down a ramp they haven't used in a year and expect everything to be fine. If we go out it's at daylight and we are off the water by 10:30
I am going to stay home and go to a farm pond and see if I can locate some more bluegill. I stay on private property during the holiday weekends to stay away from the crazy people. It is safer.
I like to park close to a busy ramp and enjoy the antics of the day from those who lack experience in launching. It can be some of the best free entertainment out there.Quote:
