The spring fishing season is starting off surprisingly well, with a good amount of respectable 1 – 3 pound fish being caught. The lake is still mixed, so the finned rave party is on, the mosh pit could be the entire lake. We are hearing what works right now, is slow trolling with night crawlers and shore fishing with dough baits. This weekend was going off at Juniper Point and slightly west of that. Early in the year I like light colors, especially red, white and blue, which not only catches fish, but makes everyone want to scream out, MERICA’!! Early morning and late afternoon seems to be the zone for right now. We’re in mad prep mode for massive stocking events coming up; we’ll be throwing in big fish, little fish, and everything in between. I would love to tell you when and where, but you know what happens then. Even the weak at heart will be able to catch a fish this spring. We have had numerous helpers who care about me, and more so fish, and I have stored up a few nuts. So all you squirrels come get some.

We CAN tell you that a blimp filled with tagged fish is gonna EXPLODE right before the Fishin’ for $50K. It’s gonna be a “GoodYear” for fishing in the pit. We’re gearing up for the 15^th Annual Carp Round-Up on June 16^th and 17^th. It is not advisable to miss this bad boy. Raffle prizes coming out our belly buttons, but I will say this isn’t a freakin’ game.
