Think I'll get everything ready to go and hit Conway in the morning. I don't have the boat ready at all. Took everything out so I could use it while hunting. Think I'll head outside & start getting the boat ready to go.
that one& only boat that was here today left with 18 at 1:30
Boat is all set. Got all the fishing stuff back in there. Plan to head that way in the morning. You guys got me fired up to go.
Ill be out that way in the mornin to see if I can catch somethin. Ill be in the edge with the side console.
Well... anybody have any luck out there today? (Wednesday)
There is a LOT of small fish this year!! I mean 5-7 inches! Caught probably 30-40 today only a handful of keepers. Probably 10-15 boats, lot of folks zeroed on keepers.
Typical Conway report. Im sure somebody waxed em!
I had 3 keepers, missed 4 keepers hung in the pads and caught bout 40 or so 5/6 inchers like sarge. one guy from Benton who started about 7 and fished till around 4:30ish had 22 keepers, 17 caught by 9:30. I was in a small John with a 15 hp merc and fishing from the front with a red seat.
I was there Weds too. I must have caught at least 30-40 short fish. I did manage 2 keepers. I got there a little after 9 and didn't have much luck until after lunchtime. That's when it seemed like a dink on every cast. I was fishing jigs and it looked like everyone else was using a minnow to tip a jig or just the minnow by itself. I don't think I even own a minnow bucket. Nothing against it just not my favorite way to fish. I like to fool them but looks like the fish fooled me. But hey that's fishing.
We're gonna need a district 10 explanation of the dinks in the pool:juggle
I'm no D10, but my thoughts are: Most lakes experienced a lengthy high water spring that coincided with the spawn. Think we're seeing the effects of that, plus water temps still a little warm. Smaller fish generally move before larger fish and smaller fish are generally more active/aggressive/easier to fool than larger fish. I bet folks will be seeing the larger fish soon.Quote:
