Fished three-ish hours this morning. Not much to show. Five total. Two that would measure. All released. Water temp was 76 degrees. No noticeable current. And, the water remains fairly stained. Plan to try mid -week once it cools a bit.
As usual, launched at Triana. Tried a few minutes in Indian Creek before heading to Cotaco. Not a thing.
Few fish today, but any day on the water is a great day.
Space man I went to Sunnyside landing on the Morgan county side across from Indian creek and noticed what looked like some barges at the mouth of Indian creek can you tell me what they were doing

Nice day on the water, catching is always a bonus. The good days are coming!
Slabby: They have some big water work project ongoing in the Triana launch parking lot. The barges are there for the project. Not sure what they are really doing. Wish they would hurry up and finish so they can pave the access road.
Don't feel bad I really struggled today only 17 keepers. That's a bad day for me. Glad you got to go.

Thanks for the report Spaceman. It'll get better after that water temp drops below 70, hopefully this week will help a bunch.
Glad you got to get out for a bit! Found quiet a few fish today but they had lock jaw only managed 7 keepers and 2 -3 just shy of 10” and lost 1 good ern just before the flip to da boat and it was a very very lite bite for the most .
Something changed the last 7 days or so. I was catching them good and now it's been tuff on my home lake . I did good with cowboy on Neely Henry but I've never had this much trouble this time of year.

How safe s the Triana ramp at Indian Hills.
Ramp is fine. Parking lot is a bit smaller with the construction and construction materials. Road down the hill to the parking lot is okay, just a bit of gravel and a few potholes. Still my first choice in locations to launch from.Quote:

Been using the ramp for 7-8 years with zero problems. In fact, the Triana police and some of the City workers drive thru regularly. I have no worries going there before sunrise or leaving after sunset.Quote:

I been launching at Sharps Ford but I got an older gentleman fishing with me this week. Tough to get in and out for him

Max: I may try again Thursday if the schedule allows. Haven't posted all my trips recently. Until this trip, scouting has been okay. Numbers of decent 10-12 inch fish. Still many dinks.Quote:

Glad you got out. It's been tough this last week. Two other boaters I chatted with on the 14th caught one total between both boats. Wish you a full livewell next time.Quote:

I have never felt scared to leave my truck at Triana ramp since I have been going there for the last several years. Triana police are through there pretty regularly. Just ready for the bite to pick up.
This changing weather seems to have effected things down here to but I think it fixing to turn on.
Good luck if you fish on Thursday!!! Hopefully the fishing will start picking up soon with this weather now staying cooler!Quote:
