First Time Out Since April

I arrived at the launch in the Northwest River a little after sunrise, and ran the boat to the spot. The water temperature at the surface was 45*, and I had lines in the water around 8:00 am.

I found fish scattered 5 -6’ deep, in 8 – 12 feet of water. For bait, I used a hair-jig and minnow combo. By 12 p.m., I was packed-up and heading back to the landing. In the four hours I fished, I caught 11 crappie, 1 yellow perch, 2 white perch, 3 pickerel and 6 green carp. I kept 7 crappie and 2 green carp for the table.

Yes, breading will stick to green carp!

Good luck, everyone!

Nice catch. Great colors on those fish. I got out today also, caught just 4 but two were citation size yellow perch. Rain and wind made the weather man a liar again.

Nice day. Love those pics. Cloud reflection on calm water is beautiful. Glad you got out.

Nice report and pictures

Very nice

Take care Dean .I need someone to follow around at the bash..

Nice to see that you are back out on the water again. Miss seeing you around.
