Linda and I fished Orange Grove today and it wasn't pretty. I manage to catch 2 small bass and no sacs or no brim. We didn't even get any bumps except for the 2 that I caught. Even the sonar showed no fish in the deeper water which is unusual. No one else we talked to did any better, most had caught nothing and one guy caught a bass. I wonder where all the fish went?

Sorry to hear that mr gene, not really a bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work!!! Maybe next time.
I have seen that. It's like the fish disappeared but a week later they were back and biting. They are under a cloaking device!!!
Hate to hear that you and Mrs. Linda not catching pawpaw but thanks for the report, even a bad report is good information.
it's gonna get better PPG.....hang on.....the barometer is just about getting right.....I noticed the past week with it being high that the reports are not as good.....not swearing by it....just an observation.....
Glad to hear that you and Mrs. Linda were able to get out for a while. The fishing will get better.
To bad PPG. Good you got out. I'd like to hit the river tomorrow but with the rain, going back south could be better.
Man its bad in a lot of places

Good luck Young.
JR, I need to get with you about your place down south. I only went once and it was a bust. I have no idea of where to fish in that area.
Armand, any more news from Lake Beouf or Union Oil canal.
Bruce I hope you're right. Every winter I have the same problem in the Grove. There are a few other places I fish near there that do produce in winter but the Grove is always tough for me until the end of Feb or beginning of March when the water comes back up after being low all winter and starts to warm up. Of course this year with very high water this early in the year it might make a world of difference this year.

How all this water coming down going to effect the fishing
Good morning wayne, that is a good question. Usually at this time of year we start having very low water conditions that last into March most years. If we get a big influx of water from the west, it will really muddy up the whole system and make it hard to fish. All the warm weather we have been having has set up an early spawn as indicated by females with ripening egg sacs but now high water and cold water will change all that. Will that make for a poor spawn, or late spawn, or no spawn at all. I guess it's to be seen. Whatever happens it will be a new one for us and the fish.

No ideas on where to go. Maybe lake Boeuf area or Union Oil in Amelia if you know those places.
Union Oil area was good to us last week. Should be able to catch em with shiners!
Went to cope saw knowing not a biteQuote:
