It has been an extremely good week for fishing. The weather is feeling a lot more like Summer and the water temperature is finally on the rise and making the Bluegills, Sunfish and both Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass move in to shallower water to spawn. The Bluegill and Sunfish have been easy to catch. As […]
With the cooler weather we’ve had most of the spring, everything seems to be a couple weeks later then we’re used to. Normally June 1 would be right in the middle of the Bluegill spawn but it’s really just starting now. They’ve been hiding for the last few weeks with anglers catching one here and […]

Although there have been fishermen tip toeing around the lakes for a couple week now, this is the first weekend that we have seen major activity.
