Pineview help

[Fubarfishin]

Just looking for a little info and recommendations on pineview. Wanting to try it sometime this week on the boat. I’m game for crappie, bass, trout, Muskie,… basically anything other than work! What’s good this time of year to focus on and what’s the best approach up there? I should have tackle for about anything there just not sure what to focus on and where to go??? Any help would be awesome  and appreciated!

You might have a tough time catching trout there, your best option this time of the year are crappie and perch. The perch will be closer to the bottom, the crappie you will find suspended and when you find them they will be in huge numbers. The best method for both perch and crappie is vertical jigging. We usually do best in the narrows but Outdoors with Adam Eakle had a show a few weeks back where they were doing good just down from the launch area, across from the swim beach there at Cemetery point. Are you aware they are now charging $23 to launch and the only launch area that's open is at Anderson cove?

Good to know the launch info! That is pretty steep for a launch fee, must be a nice ramp!

According to this, the Port Ramp is open: https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/uwcnf/re...ecid=74213

I would not entirely trust that, however, as I don't see a date on that webpage. The "open" season generally ends on Sept 30, after which they lock the gates.

I fished it the last week of October, and have driven past several times before and since. Indeed, Port Ramp is chained up, presumably for the season. I've been at different times of the day and haven't seen it open during any part.

There were large schools of fish easily picked up on the fish finder in many different areas, several mentioned above. They were biting jig heads w/ small plastics (most combos with white produced). My best fish came on perch rattle spoons right near bottom.

Awesome! Thank you for the info, looking forward to something different. So if I’m understanding everybody correctly there is only one launch open and it’s spendy correct?
