The bite is on, 4 walters and 3 sauger, along with a hammer handle no longer then 30cm I pulled out yesterday ! [my personal SMALLEST pike
]
they are all in the 1-5lb range but its still nice getting out and having a great time and actually catching a couple fish, no matter how small :P
it seems the small walters and saugs like to hang out right in the foam line, co-incidently where the weed bed is located. Cast just beyond the foam line with a black jig and rip it in quik to avoid the weeds until your past the foam, and then let it sink. drag it slowly back and you will have a wally on every other cast. The beach that runs down shore from the spillway is a great spot to just walk up and down casting, and there is a new beaver house [i think, its either that or just a huge pile of debris that collected] right in the middle between the main spillway and a small outfall that is also good for casting off. directly out and to the right of the beaver house is a nice 6-8ft deep pool where I have had great luck tossing a p-rig and worms for gold eye & some monster suckers.
Get out there while the bites on !
tight lines,
oliver
