Reply With QuoteI fished there yesterday and had one small fish. Water temps were 55 degree's. I fished up in Saddle Creek didn't get a bite there. That might be a good bite when the water get's warmer. Any other reports?

We all know how much fun that is....nut much! Hopefully this warm spell will help. We saw a ton of carp up rolling in the flooded buckbrush also....kinda funny to watch!

I've got a monroe lake question. last fall i fished the fast side of the lake with enough luck to get me to stay over that way. while slow retreiving plastic worms, I had enough bite-offs to make me want to throw leaders on...any clues or suggestions? walleye? pike/musky? or am I doing something way wrong? I'm still teaching myself the art of plastics and would be curious what the experts say. Thanks. I use spinning rod/reels with 8-10 lb mono. and retie if find my line frayed.

could be gar, if they have them in there. i know down here in southern indiana i get gar to bite all the time on soft plastics, especially when i'm swimming them slow.

It could be walleye.....pike are few and far between anymore. You might try a light Flourocarbon line (10 lb. test still has a small diameter) it is a little more durable and has good sensitivity. Good luck!

I would love to tell you guys that everyone struggled like me at Monroe, but we had some teams find them. We had a team with 6 fish that weighed over 20lbs. Second had a one over 5 and 4 others. I managed to get 1 15 incher. Did get a good sun tan?!
