WTG Mike,sounds like you all had a great time,don,t know weather I will go much this year but it is one Great Lake to fish, the fish will still be near the shallow pockets in the creek run thru May but will be mostly on BP 10 to 18 feet deep,just hit the tops of them and it will be better to come down lake some after spawn because bluestone and buff will be hard to find the bigger fish in them then,they seams to hold smaller fish then and bigger fish head for river
Yea the lake is more what I am used to growing up in Tennessee so i am comfortable there I just need to learn the seasonal locations. I saw you Gene flying around from dock to dock last week is that somewhere they hold all year I have never fished docks until summer.
Docks are more spring and fall with a few in main lake in summer.this lake needs to be separated in 2 or 3 section to know where and when to fish each section.First section being up river to big bridge ,second section from bridge to Rudds and 3 section from Rudds to dam or you could put second and third together,but doing this will help determine how you fish and where you fish at a certain time of year
Nice job. You look good out on the water with that new rig.
No problem, got about 400 on GPS. and still makin new ones! my contact info is on the Va Guide listin at the top of the page.Quote:
