just went across the dam and there must have been at least 15 boats a the towers and then another 10 or so scattered on farther out. got to get my butt out there.
Saw that too. looked like they’re rafted up.
That ain’t nothing. Wait till this weekend.
I don’t enjoy fishing in that mess, but they are catching fish. Lake World weighed in a 30 yesterday and a friend of mine got a 28 Tues night from over there.
The opposite side of the towers was packed too. We were trolling in the big water and could see all the lights. Didn’t do very welll with only a couple of fish. I’ll have live bait next time I go.

Last couple of nights out they have been that way. With all these big fish being caught i like to think i am due. Its been almost 4-5yrs since my 18# fish…i know i hooked one about 2yrs ago and got to see it and cried when it pulled the hook 40’ away. Last couple trips i have seen some random marks that you just know are 20+# fish…lol…when that arch is solid and about a 1/4" wide u know its a big boy…just got that feeling its gonna happen soon. Hopefully this weekend. Have thought about making a drive for some monster bait but cant bring myself to put in the time to do so when u know everyone else is probably using reg size. But sure would be nice to have some 1/2# shad
Where would you get big bait like that, live or frozen? I went in a cove yesterday morning, drifted over a lot of fish, but nothing, pretty sure I was drifting too fast. Another boat came in and caught three in a half hour. I moved to the North side to get out of the wind, Nada. As I was pulling up my last line, a 28-30 inch striper nailed the sinker right at the boat, I could have got him with the net. Oh well, at least I got to see a good one up close.
Can I borrow your towel? My car just hit a water buffalo.
