Beaver Lake

[biggw]

Me and BanditMan made it out the other day to Beaver -- It felt good to be back on that Lake we idled the big motor all over the place felt good not being on the trolling motor all day long--The fishing about 20 small ones we tried to find the bigger fish but had no luck-Lake is down a bit color in the water temp was in the mid 70;S--And the grass is going away in a lot of places--one boat there with us--It was nice and quiet and very peacefully there--A far cry from all those big engines at Cedar creek-ZOOM ZOOM IM sure a few on here knows what I'm talking about-- You guys take some time out and head to Beaver and you will catch some fish --Baits take your pick Gl to us all

do they let you idle around with bigger motors now

[BanditMan]

The county attorney said they couldn't and wouldn't prosecute, because the way it was worded. Now if everybody would just stay calm and just IDLE, it shouldn't be a problem. Time will tell. Good Luck.

That sure does open up the lake to more boats. Is there still a sign up?

Yes there is a sighn still up and it should be the final say.....But it's not. Its nice to idle around and cover some of the lake that I usually don't fish. There was a 4.44 pounder caught saturday during the classic. Pretty sad that it was the only keeper caught in 2 days of fishing but that fish won Allen $1,150.
The bite is awesome right now and any bait will produce. I caught fish on a spinnerbait, buzzbait, tube, jig and fluke. Good luck to all and have fun. You will catch alot of fish just dont expect fish over 15 inches. I boated 30+ on sat, and sun.

It's amazing to me that all the fish that are being caught are all under 15 in. I know big fish are still there, but none are showing up. I like the action anyway.

i havent been down there in years, didnt want to be on the the trooling motor, but i guess if we can get away with idle speed then i will give it a try....i dont see what harm it could do anyway, i mean, a big motor at idle speed is calmer that a 10 horse wide open right?
what time of day is everyone catching fish? i might try thursday after work till dark, and then if i have luck, ill take the youngin back friday evening after work

[BanditMan]

All day anytime, right now anyway. I know what you mean on a 10 hp wake with a couple people in the boat. BIG WAVES. Time will tell . Good Luck!
