Curious to depth folks are finding their fish now since I haven't been in couple weeks
Not sure about GWD but on the hill the blacks were toting eggs a week ago and were getting caught <15' of water up to the banks. I'd check those flats first if I were you. Look for stained water.
Haven't been in 2 weeks to grnwood, I didn't do much in water deeper that 12' all the way up to as shallow as your heart will let you runnnnnnnn!!!!!
I haven't been but have talked to a few people that have been fishing, and they aren't doing much in the shallows. This could change with the warmer weather this week, but I also haven't heard of many people catching fish with eggs in them. It is hard for me to believe that the fish have spawned out with the inconsistent spring we have had, but I haven't heard of many reports with fish with eggs still in them being caught. But all this is second hand info as I haven't been lately.
The fish I caught Monday on the Wood had eggs. Jonesz, of course, you know my fishing report. For the other posters, I was fishing in 10 to 14FOW. The fish were high in the water column.
Jay the fish have been high on most of the lakes this year :dono Not sure of the reason. Thanks for the report.
My buddy Jay Hawk said if I were lucky, you would respond to my post, lol. I think it would just be best if you took me fishing with you and show me how to find them!!! Please??????Quote:

The fish must be in all stages of the spawn as today I caught them in water from 10'-14' deep and was pulling about 8' down. Most are females that havent finished spawing out yet. I'm guessing they go in and lay some eggs, move back out, and come in again and again until theyre laid out. Any other guessers?!?
Yep, Did it again yesterday with 60. The water was 2° cooler and the fish went deeper a little bit. Caught a lot of fish but not fast n furious as before. I cleaned 2 males and the rest were females. The ladies had small egg sacs in them. The last fish caught was a 11.5# striper on 6lb test.
Way to go Jay! Morning or afternoon? Same colors?
Afternoon. Same colors as stated earlier. John Deere and the UV silver were the killers.
