Windy Sunday Afternoon - April 12th, 2015

Greg and I tried the water lake this afternoon. The wind blew pretty steady and prevented us from finesse fishing slowly with shakey heads like we had planned. We did catch some fish up shallow on moving baits. I caught 3 on a chartreuse in line spinner and Greg caught 2 on a swim bait. All five bass we caught were up really shallow. The water temp was 59 to 60 degrees.

Stray Cats - April 6th, 2015

Joe and I attempted to crappie fish Bluestone lake today. The water was muddy and 55 degrees. I had one hit an missed it. Joe caught 3 channel cats. We landed no panfish on this day.

First Day of Spring - March 21st, 2015

On the first full day of Spring Greg, Todd, and I fished the water lake. Greg caught one bass about 12 inches on a shakey head worm and me and Todd failed to boat a fish. It was a nice day to be on the water all the same. Warmer air and water are coming. Greg had his new Jackson Cuda 12 seen in the pic.

Pretty Day but No Fish.... Febuary 8th, 2015

Warm air temps, clear sunny skies with cold clear water running a little lower than normal made for a really tough day of winter fishing. The air temps made it to 67 degrees but the water never got any higher than 37 degrees. John and I fished for 4 hour out of his G3 river jet between lower Shanklin's all the way down to just above Harvey Falls at Cedar Branch. I had one maybe bite that after I reeled in had a bass scale on it, but other than that it was slow hard fishing. We tried tubes, jerk baits, jig and pig, creature baits and spider jigs all with no takers. Winter fishing has been tough this year.

One Dying Shad.....Febuary 7th, 2015

Greg and I gave crappie fishing on a still partially iced over bluestone lake today. The air temps were nice around 40 degrees or more but the night before had gotten into the teens and there was still a lot of ice on the lake. We tried drop shotting crawlers for 4 hours without getting a single bite. There were four other boat on the lake and I never saw anybody else catch a fish. I even talked to two of them who said they were having no luck. We stopped crappie fishing and threw a musky lure and jerk bait for about an hour after it was apparent that despite the warm day time air temps the falling water temps had the fish in a negative to shut down mood. The only fish I saw all day was a dying shad kicking around on the surface of the water. He was around 8 inches long.
