    I would stick to the reefs and pull crankbaits, the last few days has shown quite a bit of promise. look for areas in the 8-14 foot range in the main lake basin.

    Now that’s a fishing report. There’s a lot of mumbled gibberish on the net who call themselves a fishing report but, none can hold a candle to this honest assessment of what anglers can honestly expect. I can’t wait to get up there! Thanks Big Rock.

    Approx when is the jumbo perch bite (usually) and is Sheep Pastures a good place to search them out? Also, what’s ethical to keep- do we send over 12 inchers back?
