I fished Pineveiw from 7am to 7pm yesterday. All I can say it was a perfect day for Tiger fishing. The water stayed around 62-63 around the whole lake. It was not hot enough to warm the water up and slow the fishing down. The lake conditions were right were the should be for the first time all spring. The Tigers were in the mood also. I ended up putting 11 Tigers in the boat and probably lost or missed twice that!!!! Only down side was none of the Tigers I caught were anything to brag about. I did hook into 2 that were 40+. One dove into a submerged bush 10 feet down and snagged my lure 10 feet down in the brush then swam off after unhooking himself [] The other was strong enough I ripped the eye right out of my lure in the fight [] It was by far the best Tiger day up there I have ever had. The fish were caught all over the lake. In the bays, near deep drops, the open water, and even found one down in the narows off the rocky shoreline. The water was very clear and clean also. One more thing the perch have moved up into the flooded brush. They were everywhere and following my lure in all day. I was watching a group fishing the brush with 10 foot poles. They would just drop there bait in the brush and pull it up a few seconds later with a perch. They were filling a cooler full of the little guys. The fishing should stay red hot unless we get another one of those heat spells.

It was a great day and should be a great weekend up there. Well except for the masses of people that are going to be on the lake starting today. Also the start of the season for the power and pleasure squadron[] Whats the saying "There goes the neighborhood" for 3 months!!!!!!!!

That's true. Did you catch anything on the North or South shorleline of Cemetary Point?

No I did not even fish Cemetary Point. Actually had a few follows in the bay right next to the ramp on Cemetary Point. Most fish were caught in the middle fork in various locations.

Wow Nate, I knew that I should have taken you up on your offer of a couple years ago to fish Pineview. Let's see if those tigers "are the fish of 1,000 casts" you must cast and retrieve extremely quickly to catch 11 of them in one day!

Awesome pics and a great report, thank you! I was wondering if you could share the types of lures you used? I am hoping to get up there sometime this weekend if I can find anyone to go with.
