We arrived at the lake around 3pm or so. First thing we did was go directly across to the breast of the dam and fished some of the riprap. I was throwin a jerk bait while Jeremy was throwin a crank bait. He ended up hookin a 14inch Largemouth after only a couple casts. We then trolled the whole way around the right side of the lake and back to the docking area.
In the meantime though, we did some serious lip ripping! We found the bite like we usually do at Curwensville Lake and we stuck to it the whole time. We were throwin 4in Flashes and boy were we catching them. I was fishing from the back of his boat and I hooked up with 3 nice largemouth. The biggest catch of the day was this beast. ~18in and ~2.5-3lbs.
We hit all of the structure and steep dropoffs that we could. Jeremy ended up catching 7 or 8 nice ones from the front of the boat with this being his biggest one. (15 inch, 2lb largemouth.)
In all we had a pretty productive day on the lake.. We caught roughly a dozen fish in about 5 hours. the bite was good from abour 4 until 630 then it really slowed down. The fish weren't hitting topwaters yet, but they couldnt resist the purple flash! It was windy at times but for the most part all of the fish we caught were when it was fairly calm. There weren't many boats on the lake either.... The girl at PJ Bresslers Bait Shop said that the bite was pretty good for perch and panfish... we asked her about the bass bite and she said that she hasn't heard of many people bass fishing there yet this year....
Hope that report helps.. If anyone has any questions after reading this email me at jtm5058@psu.edu
Catch ya later!
