I'm calling you OUT!

Just a thought here, maybe the posts vs views can match up. Drop us a line, are you still there, let us know. Whatcha been doing with yourselves? Are you fishing shallow, deep maybe? My lake has the best beach because--- anything, just break up some silence.

The NEW Glen? I'm not sure if anybody here really fishes there much, but Lovewell sure has some interesting numbers on the fishing forecast. I recall some excellent fishing last time those numbers were like they are. Going into fall this lake is generally 5' low through the winter and it seems 1/2 it's size. This just concentrates those fish like, well, "fish in a barrel". For those of you who know me, YES, they are on my eating list. This is a small lake, it's somewhat protected from the elements and easily mastered. Generally no major boating issues, like stumps or sandbars. Just a hole in the wall and close enough to Glen for that 2nd lake/2nd day fishing trip. Just a thought Thumbs Up

nice post there jeffrie p. all the money in my gas budget for fishin is goin into my water budget for the garden as soon as it burns up or we get a rain prolly start fishin again ate my last eye thurs

you can tell it has slowed down a little bit.. no one posting much about catching fish.

On the water 28 hours last week. Doing well with 50-ft bag seines on young of the year of multiple species. Also pulsed DC electrical current working well on blue catfish! Will be targetting zebra mussel veligers at two lakes today with plankton nets, chasing blues catfish with the shocker boat Tuesday and Wednesday at two federal reservoirs. Should be another productive week of 'fishing' on our great Kansas waters! :biggrin

Pomona on Friday night, and as long as we could handle the heat on Saturday (about 2:00). Hybrids were hitting pretty good, crappie doing decent dipping trees. The but main thing was the channels. They were hitting crankbaits or whatever else you through. Friday night they were hitting when we trolled, or through to the bank. On Saturday we ended up just fishing for them due to the way they were biting. Caught a lot of them Saturday in about 13 FOW.

Great post guys, this is what the board needs. Post something even if its about the wildlife you see on the road. I did see toooo many fish floathing on Clinton Lake, believe most of them were wipers.

I am still around.. I have been on vacation with the family and also guiding a lot. Fished some farm ponds back home last week for those green fish and now back at El Dorado guiding. Many nice fish caught lately. Been drinking lots of water due to the heat... Hope to get some rain soon but not complaining because i don't have to mow. Hope everyone is doing well and catch a nice one...

That's bad news. Are they having some kind of kill, or you thinking its shorts getting thrown back?

Whats wrong with this picture, 507 views and only 9 post.

Noticed the same thing with the dead fish at Pomona. Some nice sized wipers, and channels also. The fish I saw looked they been dead a bit.

Nothing to post here. Been too busy putting all of the green beans and tomatoes away for winter. Have not been to the lake in a couple weeks.
Been drinking lots of beer wishin I was a fishin though! :cheers2

I know that's right, I got a garden in this year, a little late but I got Mater's coming on.

Went out with ragnar on Saturday to El Dorado while I took it easy and he guided me around for a good fishing trip.:cheers2 Caught some walleye, white bass, and crappie. Caught a decent number of fish but nothing to really brag about.

Hope to get back out this weekend when the wife is out of town with the kids. Otherwise been busy with the apple trees in our yard, trying to stay ahead of them, making cider, apple sauce, etc and freezing it for winter.

Tim.

Went to Perry lake this morning, lots of dinks, should be lots of legals next and the year after. Did manage to get a couple meals, but it was tuff. A early bite, minnows, around the stumps.

I sure would like to contribute to the thread, but just haven't been out!!! Need to get out, but darn summer is getting away from me. Really trying to make it to Camp in Glen Elder, but have a dang wedding to go to!!

Have not been for several weeks now.Just to dang hot after work'n in it all week.So been spending early weekend mornings scrap'n and paint'n the ol' house.I know FUN right?!:bash

Nice bunch of walleyes, did you take them on cranks?

Kinda seems the norm for most of us to get those chores done now. Falls hopefully around the corner and some cooler temps would be much appreciated. I know I've been doing a bunch of jigheads in anticipation. I had hoped to stir up ole fishlessDan, just haven't heard anything from him here lately, maybe check Daves for some sign of life. Thanks everyone for posting, and those who haven't, we don't want to know where your X is, just how you have been doing. I hope camp is a ball for all who attend and the fishings as good as the friendships.Thumbs Up

Kevin and I got into the wipers on topwater again last night! I caught 2 at the same time on my Skitter pop! No really big ones but we landed several 24"-26" fish, even had a huge "donkey" on my 5wt fly rod for aout 5 minutes until he snapped my tippet!!!
Going back after them again tonight with heavier tippet!
Kevin had a couple of big "donkey's" straighten his hooks out at the boat too!!!
Had a couple of totally awesome down pours but fished right through in our rain suits...

Went out to El Dorado last night with my dad to try to catch whatever. Didn't have a problem finding fish, but they were scattered from one end of the lake to the other, never found the motherload. Caught several good walleye, one keeper crappie out of timber, and the rest were white bass, o yeah! and the token El Dorado drum! Ended up with about 20 fish. Wish I could find the wipers like you guys at Milford are, a month ago they were easy to come by, now I'm scratching my head. Kept an eye out for surface activity but only saw the occasional carp. Good trip overall!, wondered if anyone was getting rain from all the cloud buildup and lighting to the north.

I have been out a few times, but mostly refilling jig boxes and fly boxes that got cleaned out this spring. I have some sweet looking bucktails and a few new ideas that need to get "field tested" between now and dock time.

Board has slowed down again. As we approacch great fishing time again. (No ski boats). What's peioples plan on where anD how to attack. Takig my first try at the crappie trail this weekendn to have some fun and relax and hopefully catch some fish. Don't need many just 1. 17" would be fine.

Headed for Webster this morning like an idiot. Tried talking myself out of it all week long but my brother was flying in from Phoenix for the big KSU/Miami matchup tomorrow so I took today off hoping to get some fishing in. Thought we'd try Webster because I've never fished it and it's supposed to be a pretty decent lake to fish with North wind. Got there around 8:30 a.m. Got the boat already to go, put rain suit on just in case. was getting into truck to back down ramp and CRACK!!! Scared the crap out of me! I don't mind fishing in the rain as long as it's not a down poor but lightning, forget about it. Was watching radar on the way out and it was just showing rain but by the time I got there some significant storm cells had built up. Could of waited it out I suppose but with family coming in late this afternoon, we headed for home. At least put out the effort I guess!!! Hoping to hit OSFL next week some evening after work next week. Then maybe see if I can get my boat on next weekend. Be heading to the Glen again soon and maybe try Webster again when the forcast looks more promising.

that sucks. Anybody think the big boats will be out at Pomona tomorrow. Would like to go after those whites and wipers. Never caught a wiper before and it sounds like fun.

Wipers are a blast to catch!! After reading Crappiedoc's post about OSFL, I might have to cross that off my list of lakes to fish.

I would imagine it will be considerably more quiet on Pomona tomorrow than it has been recently. With the rain we are getting now and the temps supposed to be in the low 50's tonight with highs of 75 tomorrow I spect they will not be near as bad tomorrow. A lot of pleasure boaters put them up for the winter after labor day.
If you go to Pomona be sure to try the hump between the adams grove ramp and the 110 mile ramp. That is where we got into them last weekend. :cheers2

Thanks, will go out in the later part of the day and fish till dark. Are they on the top in morning also?
zeepo

Started new job last week and it doesnt look like they give a guy time to fish, so doubt I"ll have much to contribute for awhile. But I do enjoy keeping up with all of you fellas reports, kinda keeps me yearning to drap the ol'Champ out! Those of you that can go keep posting! Your posts are like a LIFELINE at times!:cheers2

I am not sure about the mornings. We didnt start fishing for the whites and wipers until about 6 in the evening when the wind went down and the pleasure boaters got off the water. We fished right up until dark and they were still popping the surface in spots.
We were throwing spinno-kings and 1/4 ounce sassy shads and doing pretty good on them.

glad your working but sorry you cant get on the water as much. i agree, these really help me get throw the day at work when its slow.

Pouring jigheads :fish and throwing darts at Joes pictures :biggrin. Nah, getting some vehicle maintenance done, it's a coming :dono sometime

went to Clinton after the rain and man was it windy. Only 3 boats on the lake. Was throwing for whites across a couple of points and caught about 13 small walleyes and 3 nice keepers 18-20 inches. Had walleye, eggs and hash browns for breakfest. All caught in less than 5 ft of water on rattletraps.

Could not fish the hump too windy so I went up the next arm in the trees and hit a point and caught white bass for 3 hours. Had to quit as I did not want to go through the trees in the dark.
