Friend caught multiple HSB on soft shad lure. Vicious fights, none of his lures held together more than two fish. But water temps are approaching danger zone, will have to curb this soon.
We harvested 7 LMB, bringing total since 1 Oct 18 to 195. Goal: 250. Caught half a dozen LMB too big to keep, along with CNBG we threw back.
Was going to add a little more fertilizer, but water was the greenest I've ever seen. Viz maybe 24 to 30 inches, olive green. I think adding more fertilizer is an unnecessary risk now that water is fertile & weather is hot. Besides, I feed daily.
Am pondweed and what looks like nitella are spreading, though limited by depth. YOY fish are taking advantage in a big way. Looking forward to adding 7k TFS in next week or two!
Cormorants are gone(!!!), still have some ducks, a GBH, and a couple of Canada geese. Haven't seen the bald eagles lately, hopefully I will soon.
