Jordanelle Rpt. - leaky - 05-22-2003
Ok guys,
Apparently it's warmed up enough!!! 21 May - Fished from my tube with "Bud" along the North East side from about noon to 6 pm and caught 15-20 bass and about the same number of perch using my standard small pearl curly tail jigs. No big ones yet, but I'm confident they're either there or coming in. Bass sizes ranged from about 11 - 15 inches. Everything was tucked in real close to the bank, with the majority of the fish caught within the first 5 ft. from the bank.
Tried to measure water temps since that's pretty critical as to when they start coming in and are active. Didn't have my glasses and the paint marks on my thermometer have worn off so I really couldn't read. I thought I read it as 58 deg which has to be wrong, so if anyone else has temp. info please post. This info. is used to plan my first trip to the Gorge for smallmouths. 58 deg. would mean it's time!!!

That's the road I walk in from with my tube and usually the main bay I fish. I kept walking this time about another mile. I did try the road bed on the way back with no luck, but I did find them tucked against the bank on the other side of the bay.

Thanks for the heads up leaky. Sounds like the smallies should start really coming on pretty soon. That pond sure holds some nice ones. I just hope that when all that nice underwater cover deteriorates, the fishing stays the way it is.
Do you have problems with boats while on your tube?

#@*# Yes, and water scooters! That's why I only go on week days! It's tolerable then.

They were all 9-10 inches. Wasn't targeting them, they're a lot larger guys in there. I did bring home some for dinner. They are one of my favorites.
