Aluma-Bass Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Going to be renting a small fishing boat this Sunday, anyone catching anything recently? what stage are the fish in? Thanks in advance! Quote
Aluma-Bass Posted April 5, 2012 Author Posted April 5, 2012 thanks guys! Any chance we could get into some stripers? Quote
Zoff Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 I have been catching them over near Lucky Island in Blackwater area. Wasn't targeting them though. All have been caught on some form of Strike King Square Bill... mainly sexy shad... fishing for large and small mouth. All have been in the coves just past Lucky island. Quote
Aluma-Bass Posted April 5, 2012 Author Posted April 5, 2012 where is lucky island? only been to lake twice before.... Quote
Zoff Posted April 5, 2012 Posted April 5, 2012 Go to these coordinates: N37° 02' 47.45" W079° 39' 36.01" . This is Lucky Island. From my pic... the red circles are where i have been nailing the stripers in fairly shallow water. 2 Quote
Aluma-Bass Posted April 5, 2012 Author Posted April 5, 2012 cool!! thanks Zoff! This should give us a place to check out rather then just roaming around.... Quote

Aluma-Bass Posted April 6, 2012 Author Posted April 6, 2012 awesome! these are all new spots for me , i haven't been to this part of the lake yet but really i haven't been to lake just to fish most times it has been pleasure boating. During all my trips pleasure boating i have always seen good fish and always told my self i need to come back just to fish and leave the women at home! So that's what im doing!! Anyways are these spots gonna be rocky? flats? drop offs? structure? I wont have much for electronics, this boat says it comes with depth finder but im sure its a cheapo. As long as i can get depths out of it i should be good. Thanks again for your guys input...trying to make as much out of this one day trip as possible on this big lake! Quote
