Its been a long time since I have been able to fish St George in March but here goes--I hear the water is in the upper 50s, lower 60s after the cold spell. There may be a few pompano starting to...
I rent a Suburban for my hunting trip each fall as well. Weekly rates are usually much cheaper than 3-5 day rates. I rented a Suburban from National last year for under $400 with corporate rate and...
Fished Cave Run out of Alfrey on 5/25 9am-2pm. Water was stained for cave run at ramp but visibility good to two+ feet, lake up 4.32' over summer pool and 67.4 F at 9am. Two whole trailers at...
I fish a few pools downstream-Nonesuch. The fishing is always very hit or miss on the river and you can catch anything there. It is almost like saltwater because you don't know what you have until...
I have not fished Eagle in a long time due to over predation from the otters. Last time I went, I caught one 6 inch smallmouth in over four hours fishing from same spots that I had caught LM,...
Just a few:
Once while wade fishing elkhorn, cast a pop r by the bank in an eddy and out popped a copperhead, taking in the lure then going into its hole in the bank. He kept that one!
At...
If the color is a little off (as it looks like it should be), throw a 1/8 oz buzzbait in any slack areas with current nearby. Have another rod ready with a follow up lure-senko or tube jig if they...
Google slim beauty. Have used that knot for saltwater and freshwater flouro leaders with great success. Very small and can pass easily through rod guides.
First off, yes bass rods will cross over nicely. Casting rods m-mh with anywhere from 8-17 lb test are fine. Spinning rods perfect as well with 8-12 lb test. I highly, recommend a flouro leader of...
I have a 1986 bass tracker with same issue. After extensive internet research and speaking with many boat guys, I am going with a fix of the rivets with a 3m product called 5200. I have to clean...
I live on south Elkhorn in and I thought I had a problem with otters just this year. Turns out it is the Mexican workers seining the creek of everything! I found two nets hidden in a bush and got...
May be heading to the river as traffic is usually not bad on holiday weekends. Looking for any info for Camp Nelson to Tyrone if anyone has seen it or even fished it. Water level looks ok on gauges....
Highly recommend nanofil. Bought some last year in the dental floss white color and added a flouro leader with great results. Got on eBay this year and bought a 1500 yd spool of green with same...
Small crankbaits that dive 6-10 feet are my staple during the summer months. Colors vary as to the conditions but fire tiger is almost always good. Early and late I have caught some decent bass...
Water temp 80-83, fished from 8a-12p. Weather was ok but about noon, the thunder was getting close. Caught 6 bass-5 spots and one smallie all on crankbaits off of rockpiles in clearer water with...
Sorry to hear about your misfortune. I had the same thing happen to me about 15 years ago at the big south fork. Never got anything back and homeowners tried to settle for fraction of what it was...
Thanks for posting, I was thinking of heading down there in am. I will post IF I go with this heat.
Amberjack 95lbs-Destin, FL

Costa 580s are by far the best out there. Go to BPS or similar to try on frames you like, when you find the ones you like, don't buy them there. Go to eBay and pay 30-60% less. Best thing you will...
My tackle depends on where I am fishing from. Surf, I use 6.5-7 ft spinning gear with 8-12# mono for lures and jigs or 20# braid for live bait with Shimano 2500 on 6-6.5 ft rods and 3000 on 7'6" and...
Creek cleared throughout the day and temps reached to 74 by afternoon. Fishing was slow in most spots and mostly smaller fish. We did catch 22 but only one went to 16" then the next largest one was...
At the cut, go out on the gulf side on the big limestone rocks as far as you can. You will see the sand bar as it approaches the rocks on the beach side but then drops into a gulch of about 6 feet of...
Congrats on your sharks! I have been going down there for 24 years and to me, there isn't a better spot to just fish and relax. For your pompano, I recommend you getting some Nylure jigs-yellow...
May be headed to Frymans thurs. How is the water and are the lm still on beds? Any help is greatly appreciated and I will post a report.
Get you some 1/4 oz. saltwater leadhead jigs and a bag of 25-4" chartreuse curly tail grubs and 1/2 pound of shrimp that are fresh enough that you can eat them. Rig the tail on othe jig head and add...
Fished about 2 1/2 hours in the light rain upstream from high bridge. Water was 62-66 in spots and slightly stained but perfect for this time of year. Good ol' river as I caught all the fish on the...
May head to ky river tomorrow around high bridge or nonesuch. Anyone been on there and tried bass? Thanks for any help and I will report if I make it there tomorrow.
I have some of the Lucky Craft versions called Wander. They are good at times when the fish don't want to come all the way to the top. To me, I prefer something on top that makes more noise-sammy...
I was out last Sunday with family-not fishing-and saw some jumps on point just past Alfrey ramp and then some in Scott's Creek. Didn't go on up lake though.
Eagle Creek in places can be very good. A jon boat is good for that creek because in a lot of places in Grant Co. it will be 6 inches then flow into a 6-8 foot deep pool. Problem with a lot of...
Was very cloudy/with some rain today so scalloping was tough to say the least. They are pretty small for the most part. If I were you, I would wait a couple of weeks for them to get larger. Got...
I am not sure about piers but if you fish from the shore or a boat you will need a non resident license. $49.50 for an annual, and around $30 for a week and around $20 for a 3-day.
JD-Thanks for the info, have done that for years! Scallop season is opening a week early this year for St. Joe Bay, this saturday! Will do that for sure. Got out on the flats behind St. George in...
Wind has been keeping the boat dry so far. If it would lay some I could get out to the east end and catch some trout, pomps and macks. Have been catching trout in the surf which is a nice change...
I am heading down there in a couple of weeks and was wondering if anyone out there has been trying the reds or trout on the flats or Pomps at the East End of St. George. Any help is appreciated and...
I have fished the Nonesuch pool for over 20 years and have hooked 1 muskie in all those years-very large (40"+) near the lock while fishing for bass on 8lb. test. Did see one two years ago but he...
I have tried all brands of spinning reels and in my opinion, there is Shimano and then the rest. I have tried top of the line Stellas and they are overpriced but they are the best by far. The drag...
Don't bother with the float and fly. Ramp at Frymans is ok, just a little low-need to stay towards the upstream side. Water at ramp was 46, upcreek 53!! They wanted crankbait fished erratically in...
Two years ago, caught a spot at Green 4-11 on a senko. Few years before that, had one on a spinnerbait in March, 52 degree water, in 2 feet of water that measured 21 inches and was full of eggs,...
There should be bait/shrimp moving into the bay this time of year. Look for the birds and under them are usually trout. If you start catching small silver trout, go to a heavier bait and let it...
Try this place-right on the lake with a dock to tie up your boat:
http://www.vrbo.com/217966#features
This place has all the amenities and is in the middle of the lake so nowhere is far from...
For the fall, I always downsize everything for the small creeks-4 lb test, 4 inch or smaller worms and flukes, 1/8 oz. poppers, 1 1/2 inch craws, 1/8 oz buzzbaits and 1/16 oz. spinners. the lower...
Try a 4" senko in Green Pumpkin with black flake-the samllies and rock bass will devour it. When the flow is low like now, any small top water will get noticed and whacked, usually without ever...
Once hooked a snake on a popper in Elkhorn right by the bank, didn't see him there and he struck at it when it landed about 2 inches form the bank. Thankfully the **** thing went into its hole by...
Hit it at Fryman's today from 6a to noon, started slow but it picked up some on a popper. Water was good color and had a little flow to it. Biggest (16" and 18") were on popper about 8 feet out...
Fished that pool Monday-VERY slow to say the least. The level is tailing off and the water is still cloudy but is clearing somewhat. The fishing can't be any worse than it was Monday!
Try this...
Hit pool 6 yesterday morning for 3 hours and had one small bass with a decent one that followed the crank to the boat and had a big bluegill on same crank. Otherwise VERY slow. Some flow but water...
Two years ago we invested in a sealer just to freeze some saltwater fish. We ate the last bunch a month or so ago and they were just as good as when they were fresh. These were large fish-tuna,...
Wait till you get into a school of reds. You will fish until you are tired of catching them! If you think an 18 inch trout can peel drag, just set your hook into a 27 inch redfish! No comparison. ...
