Fishing Forum

Had a hookup with TubeDude semi-set up for today but he decided AF might offer better fishing... or maybe better company. We are still planning a hookup but won't be until the weather is right. I'm sure he will chime in with one of his usual reports later today.

I had a great day at Lincoln. Arrived at about 6:00 to a lonely launch. Water temps bounced between 64 and 65, seas were dead calm. I caught cats consistently all morning until I ran our of bait at about 9:00 (I had a lot of bait with me.) Had two poles with fish on at the same time. Cats are strong, fat, and feisty. Biggest of the day was a 28 incher, several in the 24-26 inch range. Used carp and wb for bait but carp was the favorite.

One other boat fishing near the launch for wb. They were picking up a few but catching was slow.

Windy weather coming so I'm out of business for a few days. As soon as the weather permits I'll be back after 'em.

Good to hear you got after them again, wish you wouldn't use the W word, especially on weekends[frown]

Great post, looks like you had a lot of fun. My kids have been asking to go catch some fat cat fish.

Sounds like a good trip! And a 28" kitty to bump you up a little. Nice work. Those 30 and over cats seem harder to come by this year. The year is young though and the water should last. I saw today the the Provo is over 1000 cfs near the inlet. The lake ought to jump in the next week if that keeps up.

I am curious though, with all those carp you harvested, how do you run out of bait when the fish are biting?[]

[#0000FF]Glad you had a good trip. I shoulda joined you. I also got a lot of cats at AF but there was a pesky south wind that kept the water bumpy. The bottom line on my sonar screen looked like a buck saw blade. Also, was hoping to get some white bass and/or walleyes. Lost one walleye but even the wading warriors weren't scoring any whities today.

Report later.
