You get the permit at the lake. There is an older man who sits at the ramp in the mornings and will check if you have a sticker on your boat or whatever. If not you pay him and he will give you one....
So what are things like up there guys? I hardly ever fish there but i wouldnt trying it out this weekend. Whats the water temps and spawning stage if somebody doesnt mind sharing
I'm not sure with a fish that big.. I think normally when i catch a big one thats about to bust it weighs a 1/2lb to 1lb more than it normally would. Not as much as you would think by looking at...
It got good there when the clouds rolled thru. i didnt fish bluegrass but i did fish a pit in the area and i was catching them on topwater every cast, i was loving every second of it even tho they...
Are you just curious or is there something behind the thought? I dont like the idea.. i spend enough to fish already. And it doesnt even sound like real fishing to me. I want unpredictability and i...
Super spots are super light. The 1/2oz models are really only like 1/4oz. Which has its place like when the waters really cold and you want a real slow retrieve or in ultra shallow water. But for...
Yeah, youll just see a parade of boats fly by once in a while. Its not a big deal tho, most of the time you wont even know they are there
Very nice. I saw you takin your boat out on my way to loon. It was a bit tougher in the afternoon, they didnt want anything to do with the lipless but i did catch a 19in. with a lizard, what stinks...
I fished loon today, and i really dont know.. i caught a bunch of males on lizards in spots a bed could be and only caught one female. Water temps are in the 70s now.. i think theyre spawning, if you...
I fished a pond today for a while, bass were paired up on beds. They wernt locked on yet but they were there. Water temps are right in most of the lakes ive fished.. i think this new moon is bringing...
Its too bad she didnt have any eggs.. The head on her is giant. I'd call it a 6lber, maybe a little more or less but i dont think anyone would agrue it being close to 6.
All the different brands are a little different as far as vibration and the fall. Is it better? Iduno. Lipless are my go-to this time of year and redeyes are my favorite, but the second biggest fish...
Me and my stepdad got on some big redear this weekend to. We were just fishin some strip pit in warrack county and the quality of fish we were catching was impressive. And it takes alot for me to...
I've caught them right where they were going to spawn with bloody tails but its been a week since i've fished that lake and i'm not really sure whats happened since then. Those were big females i...
Last year you couldnt get back into the backwater.. trees blocked it up. I managed to get back there pretty far but there was one tree that just totally blocked it.
Doesnt surprise me at all.. I went in there and looked thru some of there lake maps, i was seeing if they had Newton. Checked them all, they didnt have any.. i later figured out they dont make any.....
Lol man your right about that. They always want to help me, but i end up thinking.. dude i know this store better than you do i think, just go stock shelves or whatever you were doing. They used to...
By cypress, are we talkin bout little pigeon? My brother calls it cypress but i call it little pigeon.. I've assumed its the same creek. Its a good creek tho Steve.. lots and lots of stumps and a...
You had me worried with the white pickup on Loon.. I'm even a young white male and left around 5:30, everything fits except the doughnuts. Sure hope this goof doesnt drive a 1500 chevy, people will...
I heard a little about it.. Its kinda cool, I'll be going there all the time if everything works out.. but i can only imagaine how many more people its going to draw to the area. I'd rather it not...
Id say you beat me today Justin.. I did catch about 15 but i was out there aaaall day. Finally got a keeper, 4.6lbs. They are about ready to spawn in some areas of Loon believe it or not. Not gona...
Me personally, crankbaits havnt produced.. lipless mostly. My areas theyve been up shallow but have had deep water near by.
Same here Justin. I thought for sure it would be on, i caught 12.. nothin big. Had a nice one shake off, they just wernt eating the bait good. The wind did blow some warm water into the north side of...
Throw a rattletrap :D everytime im out i catch atleast one crappie bass fishin. There really biting good and i wouldnt mess around deep.. ive talked to guys who swore all the crappie were in 40' but...
Yeah, i like fishin them quite a bit. There super easy to use to no matter how you fish them.. casting or vertical. but its not for every lake. Its a visual type bait, when the waters stained its not...
They arnt stocked.. Some of the city lakes are close or connected to pigeon creek or the ohio river and they got trash fish, they just swim up those creeks. Sounds like burdette.. except for the 30...
Theres quite a few places you might want to try out.. indiana dnr website has a where to fish finder page. http://www.in.gov/dnr/fishwild/3591.htm that will give a good idea of what we have, plus...
The only downside i see with fluro for crankin is the price. It will get the bait down deeper, and you get better feel. I still use mono tho.. Just because i can get a couple years worth a cajun red...
I would like to help out anyway i can.. I've got plenty of extra tackle. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, jigs.. I'll muster up what i can and send them in the mail.
I had a tougher day, just a couple bass and crappie.. which its funny cause i killed them on a day you posted was tough for you lol.
Well tiger muskies are a hybrid of pike and muskie and they are usually infertile anyway. I'm guessing they are just muskie, the signs at the boat ramps say muskellunge and i havnt read anything...
I was on Loon, I like loon a little more but i do fish bluegrass pit too. Whats your boat look like? Ill keep an eye out
Yeah, iduno if its anymore of a problem than other places in the state. I guess there just experimenting on bluegrass. We'll see if it actually cuts back on the number of shad. And i caught it on a...

First one i've caught, not only at bluegrass but anywhere. They arnt big yet, i'm guessing this ones 24in. or something, but...
It kinda depends on what size swimbait your throwing. If your throwing a hollow body or lead head less than 1.5oz than a 7ft med. heavy rod is all you really need, and that works great for worms and...
lol great, i'm headed there now. I think ill take the little boat and hit a smaller pit.
bassmanic, i sent you a pm about a trolling motor
Congrats on that monster Steve. It really was a good day, only caught six today but i got a 5lber and a 3lber.. coolest thing was that my 8 year old nephew and my brother were with me, couldnt ask...
I dont know a whole lot about smallmouth except that theyre a blast to catch! I've been to dale hollow before, but in the summer so i'm not much help.. if you dont get many responses here, post this...
If you guys got the same thing i did out of it, its thats theres not a whole lot of big crappie in it.. i dont really think thats going to bring anymore people in than usual. He could have left out...
Right now all im dreamin about is a big fat prespawn largemouth. 10lbs if i had my choice, but 9 would be okay to.
Those temps dont surprise me. Surface temps will warm up quick and theyll drop quick to. It was 46 where i fished this weekend. We caught over 10 small bass, which is considered slow on this lake....
Not trying to be rude, but what do you propose the DNR do about it? Once there in a lake that size, they are there to stay. I just dont see this as the DNR's fault nor is there a good way to fix it....
I went today to. Just fished one of the small ones with the little sun dolphin boat, didnt catch any. The wind was kicking that boat all around and i knew i needed to slow down, but it was hard....
Feels good dont it? I fished newton this weekend and it was slow but i did manage two over 3lbs which felt great! Today i actually went to a pond and caught my first cold water bass of the year. It's...
Ramp on the east side of the bridge has been open. They were working on the ramp west of the bridge this past year. It might be open now, i dont know but you can always go to the other one if its not.
I second Knowing Bass.. Take it for what its worth tho, it doesnt come right out and tell you exactly what to throw where, but it helps you understand bass senses better than anything else will. I...
I think thats the number of people that qualified. More than half wont make the trip. I think less than 100 have signed up so far. I'm not fishin it either, i wish. I Didnt fish enough tourneys with...
I fished otter pit today, i was graphing alot of fish real deep. Wont be too long and they should start moving some more. Goodluck tho, i hope you figure out something better than i could today. I'm...
It was still brutal today lol. I went out and the water was 36 degrees! The warmest i could find was 38. I fished some mainlake points and all the shad were in 30 feet of water. i thought they were...
