Smaller schools are starting to scatter and head up the creeks also. Were still catching fish deep. Till they scatter out up the creeks it's kindly hit or miss, you either spend a little time trying to find 'em (and when you do it's AWESOME!), or you don't. Be patient and good luck! FISH ON!
Seems like you know what the fish do this time of year. Been down there the last 3-4 weekends. Every time I see a lot of fish hanging about 60' in a 70-80 foot bottom and maybe deeper bottom too. They seem sort of evenly spaced out too-guessing 10 feet apart on average. Lots ( I mean lots) of fish all over main lake from Beaver to dam and up in the creeks some. Often they will all be at almost the exact same depth. They won't eat "my" shiners. Tried Gizzards for a while too. They are not "streaking" on the fish finder and making nice arches so I guess they are just sitting there?

Any idea what they are?
Cats?

I have been catching more cats than stripers lately at that depth. Seems like I answered my own question there but some stripers are being caught at that depth too. The fishing (catching) for me in the last month has dramatically declined. Must be doing something wrong (I hope). I'll try wearing my other hat.
