Well, I have a faint smell of skunk hanging around after yesterday. Not completely skunked but almost. I talked with several yesterday that was experiencing the same thing. Found a lot of fish with LS but couldn’t get them to bite.Quote:

Last few times Ive been over there theyve been hitting aggressively but you have to put it right in their mouth so to speak. Dont give up. I've been 3 times in the last week and a half and its been the best fishing I've had. Not numbers wise but weight wise, but I wasn't fishing for keeps.Quote:

I had caught 3 there but it was so windy boat control & Livescope had a hard time getting along with each other..:) They went home after telling me they had talked with several people that didn't have as much as a bite. That made me feel pretty good catching 3.Quote:

I've had a tough time this week too. I have marked tons of fish but they have a serious case of lockjaw going on...
Fished this weekend, had about 3-4 pecker heads eaters (10-11"), everything else was 1.5+ with a 2.29 and a 2.40 rounding out the top. Wind was a pain but I use a chain and fish with the wind now. All went back to be caught another day. Much more scattered than they were, and a LOT spookier. Fish were swimming off or going to the bottom at 35-40ft for the most part.
I guess I'm not the fisherman that I use to be. :(:(Plus, I don't know HR like I use to. You young guys are wearing this old man out.
Real good report and nice fish..:highfive

I have yet to get to High Rock this year. Might be about time to take my kayak out there and battle the other boats for some slabs!
Went today didn’t get a bite. Cranes Abbott swearing marked fish but no bites. Even tried trolling. WT 57 main and 60 back creek.
Last month caught several 2 lbers and over 100 fish. Hopefully it gets good later on.
Didn’t see anyone else catch anything either except couple small ones at the bridge.
