Went to CC yesterday moved one fish on a jr cowgirl. was mid 30's in timber. Water clarity wasnt too bad about 16 inches of vis.
Anyone have any luck fishing main lake structure with Rubber out there? I know they can be found in timber and coves but my gut tells me the really big girls exist on main lake reefs and points.
CC is a crapshoot in my mind. There seems to be a couple strong year classes prevalent that are in that mid 30 and below category, some days it seems it's all you run into no matter how you fish. I do think as a whole you will contact larger fish over deeper water and main lake but will contact fewer fish, potentially still only landing a low 30's for a fair amount of work put in. I prefer to mix it up, either try to find a pattern for the day and stick to it hoping I'll run into a big girl or say hey let's go big and sling heavy baits around.
Going to try to get out tomorrow morning before the storms come in. But we have a house appraiser coming Monday morning and my wife has informed me the house is not "visitor ready". Y'all know what that means...
Good luck if you make it out. I haven't been able to wet a line since the beginning of the month, I think I'm going through withdrawals. Dang adult stuff keeps getting in the way, this is my favorite time of year too.
Hit Caesar today (didn't make it out last weekend). Caught one small (26") fish early on a crankbait and then missed one around 11 am on a Musky Mania spinner.
Really nice, cool morning but was burning up by 2. Of course, boat traffic gets worse as the day wears on.
Good luck, normally this time of year I'm out before sunrise and leave by noon to avoid the traffic out there. Try to get off the water when the pleasure boats are just putting on.
I was on the water at 6 and this one boat was on the water by 9. That and a mom on a jetski with one kid behind her towing another on a tube just outside the stumps. Some folks really don't have a clue about what is below them.
Heading out shortly and should be off the water about the time the church-going folks arrive.
