Beaver Lake

[tracy]

Haveing run grassmasters last year I am not doing so this yr. do to health reasons. It is to my understanding that the dock tournys are going as grassmasters. You can get the info. from the site given by Wormin. I was told the schedule may be reduced so you might check with the dock on that.
Good luck to all the old and new members out there. Haven't been out much this winter but can tell you we had ice half way to the dam yesterday morning which has since thawed . Good luck and good fishing this year all.

I talked Allen earlier he's going to help the guys at the dock some.
he said that the schedule was reduced down. and I believe he told me march 15th was the first one.

I have never been to beaver lake. How is the fishing there? Is it idle speed or trolling motor? How big of a lake is it?

Beautiful lake and nothing like others around here. Shallow with max depth at dam around 40-50 feet. Grassey banks, permanent docks(for flippin) rocky banks. It has just about what ever you want to fish. I think it is 130-150 acres, and as far as horse power goes, it's 10hp or less. I have a 18' Stratos so I have to use trolling motor only. Can operate big motor to load and unload.
The fishing is almost unbelievable! It's not uncommon to catch 20-50 bass during a tournament. The big question is finding that KEEPER. They have a 15 inch limit and sometimes that is very difficult to overcome. I live 5 miles from Herrington but will drive the 30 miles to fish Beaver. The people at the dock are 1st class, also the people that I have met while fishing are all very nice. My big fish so far is 7.1 pounds and several between 5-6 pounds. Hope to see you all on the water!

I posted this same on another post, but page 37 of the new Regs book reads that you can Idle speed at Beaver. Not true accoding to Frankfort agent. He agrees with me in that the wording says we can but he says we can't and the real 100% regs are listed in Frankfort and we can get a copy but the "Free" copies you get at Wally World are not the real stuff. Said these are in Laymons (sp) terms for idiots like me. Good Luck, fished Beaver about 6 times, mostly after the spawn, had good success skipping flukes under the many docks and white rats or frogs fished over the scum.
