I got a big largemouth along the wall on Wednesday. Walking very slow. Fished sized 1 orange Reaper. Keep fishing there but slowly. Don't be in any rush and talk to the guys that set up there like Harry. Art and I watched him pull a monster bass out in April.
Also found a baby shad so try to match the hatch with that as they will congregate in there.
from my iPhone--Showed up around 0600 and fished until 0800. Tons of surface activity, big splashes everywhere and I even saw a carp gets its entire body clear of the water going after something.Here is the issue, I was skunked. I threw carp bugs out there, minnow patterns, surface bugs. Not a nibble, nothing even came up to check my stuff out.Are the fish feeding or chasing stuff sub-surface? Is anyone catching anything out of the basin on a fly.One thing I did notice was that ~85% of the surface activity ended around 0800. Just seemed everything died down.Finally moved around a little and then left when an old time bait fisherman came and plopped down about 10 feet from where I was casting and set up shop. Guess I was in his spot and he just didn't say anything but fly casting was out of the question with all his gear in the way. Oh Well.CheersCollin
