Was thinking about going today, but I guess I could work today and go Monday or Tuesday when I'll have the river or lake to myself...

Today's fishing report:  I have no fish to report .  I'm off work tomorrow so I'll give it another go.

Did pretty good today, first time with the Ned-Rig. First cast landed a 3lbr, nine more on SK 2-Tap. And a Carp, go figure

[OddChase]

Nice catches! Now I'm really looking forward to getting out tomorrow. Will report back if any are caught.

FIshing report for 3/7/16 -

Hung one but didn't get it in. Managed to rip a hole in my favorite shirt thanks to heavy winds. Planning on going out tomorrow but will use something with more weight... and less hooks. 

[Dyerbassman]

Finally got out today, too.  Very windy.  High, muddy waters.  Not much luck in Northwest Indiana.  But it was great to be out in warmer temps.

[Josh Smith]

I am planning on going Tuesday.  Will see what happens..!

Regards,

Josh

I'll be getting out in the next couple of days. Was hoping to get out last night but other obligations got in the way.

[OddChase]

Reports of smallies in the rivers are coming in. If you guys like fishing the river banks, I'd give it a try!

I went to Salamonie Reservoir yesterday. I didn't realize just how low they drain it in the winter.

Got out on the river today, no luck. Fast currents for the kayak made it tough to make quality presentations but still a beautiful day here in the Fort.

Anyone north of Indy get into any fish yet, buying my new boat on Saturday and I am ready to get on some fish . 

[Dyerbassman]

Nothing biting yet in Northwest Indiana

[Josh Smith]

No luck yesterday. . .

What were the water temps like 

[Josh Smith]

40s -- Not pre-spawn yet. I was probably fishing too fast. Couldn't get to the best spot when I tried the river, due to water levels. Crappie were jumping, though, in the river.

Lemon is starting to heat up,  caught 18# today

[HoosierHawgs]

Went out to the park lake. No dice. The rain stirred it all up, and the blue bird skies weren't helping. I'll go again this afternoon, hopefully with some overcast skies on the way in.

[tstraub]

I went over to mississenewa today and came up empty.  I did see some guys on a boat catch a crappie and they said that they had already caught a bunch earlier.  Also saw a guy pull in a catfish that had to be around 10 pounds.  Going to try the river now.

I got out today for a few hours on Heritage lake, the white bass where biting like crazy on roostertails, and also got twenty-two largemouth between one and four pounds on the ned rig.  The water temperature is fifty-one degrees here.  

[IndianaFinesse]

Wanted to let you guys know the big Indiana bass site is up and running again.  It's a great site, written by a fellow Indiana bass/crappie fisherman.
