There Slowly Comin in!!!!
Posted by: | CommentsIt’s been hit or Miss on the Grand Right now. First few hours in the morning have been ok and then the last few hours have been ok with the middle of the day around 1 pm doing good as well. But I’m not going to tell ya that you are going to go down there and pull a ton of fish out. We have been waiting for the lake to turn over to bring a nice push of fish up and it just hasnt really happenend yet. But the Guys that are getting um are using spawn. I have been using Skein Chart. or Pink bags witha few red floaters in there. With the water dropping back down I would try to Find more holes to fish. ANd then just stick and move. Fish the Hole for a little bit and then move if your not smacking anything. Some Guys are hitting um on Spoons and Hot n Tots as well. And a few are throwing thundersticks.
The Guys off the Fulton street are getting off the bridge by 9 am. With the Easrt Side of the bridge hitting the most fish. And if you have never bridged fish. This is a really good time to fish the bridges in Grand Rapids Michigan. All you do is Tie on a Hot n Tot and give her some line and make sure your Plug is running true. Whats nice about right now. Is not all the leaves are in the water yet. So your plugs can stay wet a little longer than normal. Try using Chrome with a Red Lip But Gold with a red Lip has been hitting as many fish as anything down there. If you go down in the morning you will see the old timers with there cup of Coffee talkin with the boys and waiting for there rods to go off. And when u go down there watch there rods. They have um tied down because when that SOB hits your rod. you better make sure your there or your Rod will take the big Drink.
Walleye!!! Don’t forget about the wallys!!!! Shallow water at night has been producing the most fish. Use small Stick baits and if your getting hooked up allot. Take that front hook off of it.
Not to many fish in the smaller creeks just yet but they are starting to hit some in Buck Creek and Plaster as well. Have a good time and stop by the Store we have some new Inventory in.
FISH ON SON GET THE NET!!!!
Panfish are Heating Up!!!!!
Posted by: | CommentsIt’s a great time to be outside right now. We are starting to get over the cold weather and now the Sun is really starting to Shine. In West Michigan we have allot of Blue Ribbon water around to satisfy your need of getting a line wet.
I went to Reeds Lake yesterday and limited out on Specs. I could have got a bucket full of gills to if I wanted but we started out with about 10 dozen minnows. They where gone in no time. And then I had my buddy run me out another 10 dozen. We went threw them and started using small tube baits. And you want to talk about um putting the smack down on um. We hit allot of fish yesterday its a great time of the year to get a kid out there and get um casting for some fish. They don’t have to wait there forever to get a bite.
Look for shallow water this time of year. And keep your eye open for trees and stumps in the water. The more cover the better. And if your not getting hung up. Your not fishing right. We caught all males yesterday. The males are coming up first to get the beds ready for big momma to show up. This is a Shot of a channel at Reeds Lake. Reeds Lake is such a good fishery that you do not need to travel very far to catch allot of clean fish. I Find that alot of smaller pot hole lakes you will see pepper in there meat or grubs. And I don’t know about you but i don’t like to eat fish with all that stuff in there meat. And in Reeds Lake you will find the fish are nice and clean. That lake is so under fished.
Grand River Heating up!!!!
Posted by: | CommentsIt’s been a slow winter and it’s about time we have a had a push of fish come up. With the Sun we have been having and the warmer weather we have been having has put a spice of life back in the grand. The Fish the last few days have been hitting the dam in the morning time. and then Dropping back in the deep holes during the day to get out of the Sun. But you will still hit um at the dam though all day long just not as good. At the dam allot of guys are drifting Flies and then bouncing and floating and plunking Spawn and Skein Pink has been hot at the dam. And a few are using Salted Shiner Minnows as well. And then drifting spawn and bouncing spawn in the holes as well with Jigs and Waxy’s. This year allot more guys are hitting fish on fulton st back bouncing spawn and running plugs off there.
Boat anglers down river are Back bouncing spawn and Plugging the Holes. And also Running Jigs tipped with waxy’s in the holes too.
Last year around March 15th was the peek of the run. We have not had that much water all winter long. And with the up coming rains on there way this next week we are all going to see a nice push of fish. I think the peek of the run is still a few weeks out. They have been Holing up down River, But when they make there run up river its going to be total MAYHAM!!! Get out there and wet a line!!!!!
