Flowage Report 3/5/11
Fished the flowage on Sat. We got on with the snowmobile at Skilly's(formerly Middlestads) on the east side. Started out in the bay just before the entrance to the nursery where I had done well in the fall. There was one permanent shack there so we went near it. Drilled holes in about 16 feet and got set up. I put the vex in the water and as I watched my orange rocker tipped with a waxie get about three feet from the bottom, the bottom came up to meet it and out came a nice crappie. Many times this has not been a good start for me as sometimes this is the last fish I catch. We fished there for another hour or so and got one more nice crappie and three so-so bluegills. In the meantime another guy arrived on a four wheeler and said he had a limit of big bluegills and crappies there three days ago. We then moved to a large sunken brushpile near pork barrel island. While we were setting up my 6 year old son managed to put his leg in a hole right up to the knee. This was the beginning of the end of that day. We fished for 20 more minutes seeing alot of non-biters on the graph and catching one small perch. The rest of the afternoon was spent in the hot tub at the hotel in town. Going to try to get back up by myself for some real fishing.
