anybody doing anything on the south shore?  I have been seeing a lot of cars and very little fish coming from Williams when I have been there.  Ill be trying the north shore this week for my fish, although im scared of these alleged "thugs" I hear so much about.

[cicerofisher]

Williams has been very slow a lot of shad around and the walleye have not been biting very well at all haven't caught any fish there in few trips

[fishhooksul]

zeroed again . the shad were so so thick you could just about walk on em !! there was alot, and I mean alot of walleyes poping all around me all the way to the shore. there was just to much bait !! oh well, it can only get better from here.   later...

when i took my boat out on the south shore I couldnt believe the amount of shad. it looked like the schools of fish you see in the ocean. some of them were 4 or 5 inches too. the water was so low hasnt been an eye or bass near my dock in 5 months

Oh don't worry  :blink: Unless you hear somebody say " Release sic 'em! "

[fishhooksul]

the lake level has dropped 5" in the last 3 days. their about 2 weeks early, and the amount of shad in the lake is incredable !!!

I pulled a spanky move saturday morning. pulled the big boat for the season. I stepped in the water to hook the bow, and both feet went out from under me !! in the drink I went !! My wife was laughing so hard she almost fell off the dock !! I was laughing so hard I couldn't get up right away !! atleast the water wasn't that cold. " Spanky" you inspired me !!!"   later...

I did the same thing Saturday when helping launch at Sacketts Harbot.  Only difference is I am well over 70 and hit pretty hard on point of hip..Lucky I didn`t break it... Changed clothes and went on. Had a good day with the fish..
The ramps are dangerous...

  you take it easy Old Timer, our bones are not what they used to be. I am 62 and i have to remind myself to take it easy. I still do everything. I slipped on the rocks and skinned my knee pretty good and index finger is still sore from Sunday night.

      Fish cleaning died so I drove down to the canal tonight, great west chop at sunset, but bite was tough for me, fished from 6-9pm, got one keeper, dumped  two.... a short and really good sized one and got one other good thump I missed, got the 3 fish on 1/4 oz jigs and the other bite on 3/8 oz jig. You know its a tough bite when you count hits, jigged hard without any breaks for the full 3 hours til my neck hurt.. Great night for jigging though, warm with a bright moon too see your line with and little wind after dark.. oh well, next time, atleast I got the rust out, hadn't walleye fished since July.
