The weather just does not want to cooperate this month! it seems like we are getting a cold front leading into every weekend. In spite of the weather, fising is still pretty good.
People are having the most success for White Bass trolling. Flicker Shad, Model A Bombers, and Bandits in Shad colors have all been working well.
Walleye are still scattered, it seems like they are mostly on flats and can be anywhere from the bank to 25 feet of water. Trolling with Crankbaits that run 10 to 12 feet deep, bottom bouncing with 'Crawler Harnesses, and casting with either live minnows or Berkley Gulp Minnows seem to all be good choices to find 'Eyes right now.
Catfish are fair using Nightcrawlers, Chicken Liver, and Punch Bait. Most are having the best luck fishing over baited holes.
Crappie are still slow.
The Bass bite is still going strong. Smallmouth and Largemouth are both shallow and are being caught mostly on reaction baits, Chatterbaits, Square Billed Crankbaits, and Swim Baits seem to be working the best.
Sun Country Bass will be here this weekend for a 2 day tournament. I always look forward to their tournaments, it is chance for me to visit a little with several old friends.
Hereford Bass Club is hosting an open tournament Sunday, April 26th from 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM. You can enter early here at Ruf-Nec Tackle or Sunday morning at the Marina parking lot before 6:00 AM Sunday morning.
Good Luck to everyone this weekend!
As always, I really appreciate your business!
Tight Lines and Good Fishing!
