... I did go fishing. Went to Cedar Creek & fished from daylight til about 930A ... caught some Bluegill (c&r), but no size/numbers. Came home & went to the Golden Corral & tore up some bb ribs. That was "my" holiday celebration :) (well, that & sleeping way too much :p )
... cp :cool:
Id say a lot of it has to do with the high water... this morn will be first day out since big rains for me. Memorial weekend boat traffic im sure was outstanding and kept a few fisherman at the house......I wish the tight lips were from good fishin.
Most of us local regulars avoid the big lakes like the plague on weekends and especially holiday weekends. We leave them to the lake lice (as Wiskers calls them).
As I came in from fishing on friday 3 HUGE boats steamed past me headed to the bay I'd just left! Nice wakes when they come from different angles. :eek::eek: That's why I stay off the lake on holidays.
MRDux....I'll call ya today around 2.
I left Taylorsville a little before noon today. I caught 74 bluegill. If you've fished Taylorsville you know the bluegill are nothing to write home about but I did catch a few that were bigger than usual.
The lake was probably at about summer pool but there was still some small debris floating around.
A young soldier drowned the other day on the other side of the lake from where I was fishing and the fire department truck was still in the parking lot so I'm assuming that they still haven't found the body. My friend's son drowned there about a year ago and he still hasn't recovered from his loss.
Back from a morning at the Cave, Put in at Warix. Caught around 35 give or take a few and brought home 13 i think. Had one really nice male white crappie that was 16 in and stocky fish, nice for cave run. Had some good looking spawned out black crappie around 12 inches and couple good white crappie, and a few 9-10 inch fish to make a mess for my buddy. Mix of white and back crappie. Caught mostly on minnows on slip bobber, couple on jigs and baby shads. Fished main lake, 10 ft water 3-5 ft deep on brush. Water was warm. Filleted and gave him a decent mess, had to gripe at his wife cuz she wont eat em' and he loves fish. I have some pictures on the way, have to get em through e-mail though, I cleaned em at his house.
BTW..thats bad new Darnclem
I stay away from the water on weekends like these as well, sometimes even regular summer weekends. At times it seems like it is just dangerous. Just wanted to see if anyone was catching anything. Thanks for the replies. Thinking about trying Green out for the first time since the great flood.
Good Luck.
I hear ya on the weekend traffic memorial day on. Better get out early before the lice get up or start night fishing if ya dont want to have a "tourrets moment" on the water. By 9:30 yesterday at Cave Run the jet ski's were buzzing all over coves with HUGE standing trees about 6 inches under the water. I guess they think that only the trees that stick 20 ft out of the water are the only ones in the lake. I try to work weekends and get a day off on monday-thursday to fish in the summer. Gotta go when ya can though. :)
I went a couple days last week before the holiday weekend. 19 on Wed. & 12 on Fri. All small crappie now. I caught everything though, cats, bass, bluegill, stripers & rockbass. Sure beats work.
