Did everyone do good at Green River lake this weekend?
see my post from yesterday, Green 6/11
I had a very hard time, 1 keeper 3 short fish.
Completely baffled
went 3 days and got over 200 keepers. thursday, friday and today. mostly just good eating size.
Slabeye, are you pulling Bandits?
dutch i was using jigs way up in the river and creeks fishing 5 to 10 deep
Had 15 keepers on Sunday and a bunch of short fish. I got pounded by the wind and rec boaters. Most were 10.5" and under but did have one 13.5"er.
for my education can some one explain why the large numbers of fish on the main lake seem to have disappeared and started biting so shallow up in the river ?
Came out with 40 on Sunday.
seems that some of the fish on green STILL have eggs.????? maybe why some are shallow??
I am glad that most was able to get on some fish. :)
I didn't get to go. Still was not feeling good so to keep my wife and kids from killing me i played it safe. I will be there this Friday and Saturday.
Slabeye - you two just need to stay at home.Rofl
Colayn, Sorry i didn't see your post for 6-11 before I posted but I thought I would post
this thread that way it would be for that weekend for Green River lake. Kinda like a fishing report for Green River lake and it may offer some info to help others. I may start doing a thread every Sunday and who ever wants to add info the better.
Also like slabslayer1 sugguested, The crappie may be still trying to spawn. Last year 2010 we were still catching large numbers of keepers on the weekends in May and the water temp then was 74-78. We were in 8-5 fow. The spawn was just past the peak when the flood came. I'd say most were done spawn. But this years flood was in a way before the spawn and with the levels of water up and down the crappie held their eggs.
I am not saying that this is what is happening, this is just my suggestion.
Hope to see some of ya on the waters. Good luck!
I'll be out there thursday and friday mornings for crappie and saturday morning for bass. Hopefully I will see some of you guys on the water. From the reports that I am seeing the fish are in more of a spawn pattern instead of pulling back like they normally do when the water temps hit the mid 80's such as the case is now. I will try running up river and see if I can connect with more fish. I have vowed to start pulling cranks this season but it looks like I will postpone that until the fish start to suspend more over open water. I'm heading to BassPro tomorrow to dump more of my paycheck on expanding my Bandit collection.
I also like the idea of having a new report thread each week that we can all add to, it just keeps things tidy and easier to find on the state pages. Good luck guys and see you on the water soon.

Chucky,
Good idea about the weekly post (fishing report) I will add what I can if I make it there.
Hope you feel better this week. Better play it safe, you don't need a mad woman at home !!!! That can really hurt fishing.
Thanks Colayn, I hate feeling bad and getting my butt kicked at the same time. I think i can take my wife but if she get back up from my 2 daughters, 1 son, 2 granddaughters and my grandson
i will never be heard from again.:eek:
