Dale is producing big fish

[rickhise]

For the past several days the bite has been strong here at Dale, I have been fishing around the state park area, with help from a couple of the guides here. The lake is above summer pool mid lake 51 degrees stained an clearing daily.
I have caught more fish in the last few days than ever B4, each day heavier fish.

Okuma's yes i have, for this kind of fishing the bait feeder's are perfect.

I've never seen this lake give up the smallies like it had this week. Dad and I have boated well over 40 in 3 days, 30 of these in the slot. I had 12 smallies today, the best 5 being around 19 lbs. Had 8 today over 3.lbs! All on crankbaits! I will get some pics up when I get back home!

Yea if you want to catch smallmouth, right now is the time to be at Dale. Fished Friday and Saturday and killed them both days. Largemouth are acting a little odd.
