Hi all,
I have been putting in at either the Kowaliga bridge or Wind Creek Park. I have fished the coves near Willow Point golf club with not much luck, however went straight across the lake and fished the coves past the small islands with some luck. I have also fished in Wind Creek and the other creek area past the small bridge (elkleberry creek??) with some small hits. My son and I fish mainly with crank, spinner and plastic worms type bait. We are both trying hard but not being very successful. Fished yesterday afternoon and only landed two (one smallmouth bass and a small white bass) in the coves. I have read all the other threads with some good suggestions but are there any good areas near the two locations I put in? I don't see other bass boats nearby so are they going to some secret locations that I am not privy too? By the way, I hooked a monster using a shallow dive crank bait yesterday...it bowed my rod and stripped me of line before it got loose. I thought it was a trident submarine and nearly gave me a heart attack...wish I could have seen it. Anyway...any suggestions much appreciated...my son is starting to lose faith in ol Dad ;)
