I am planning a trip with Black Bear on Sat. I have not seen any posts lately, and with no moon, I would think it would be good. I have done the best on deer creek this year, and don't see any reason to try somewhere else.

Given that it is going to be hot this Saturday, most of the power squadron will be out for their last trip of the year. I'd expect it will be a zoo. This should be a good weekend to practice patience.

I am heading up in the morning, (fri) hopefully will avoid the yo-yo's who think they need and audience to play in the water, I have never figured that out yet? Hopefully targeting some eyes and then some bass. I will try and give you a heads up tommorow

Today was one of those days when it would have been better to sleep in. I hit the water (dc) at 6:30 the motor would rev up, it would only go trolling speed for some reason. So I pulled out of the harbor set the poles and trolled for hours, not one hit. Stopped and jigged for a bit, no hits, turned on the electric motor, battery was dead, (just charged it last night) and to top it off had some Jack$$$ water warriors think I needed to be in the boat with them. I swear i am going to start carring a sling shot and steelies, If they come that close again, I am going to let them have it. Why the Freak is it when there is a huge lake to play on, these idiots think they have to be right in with the guys fishing, Boat after boat within 50 ft. of us trolling full speed, Water even came over my bow with on boats wake!!! I have had enough of them, I will start zinging bb's at them next time. I was going to go try for some bass but i had had enough of the jerks on the lake, and with no power to the boat, I had to get off while I could. Now I remember why I hate to fish DC on Saturday!!!! They started skiing at 7:00 a.m this morning for hell sakes!!
