Took the day off yesterday in hopes of not missing the last of the spawn. Headed to Mogadore. Fished from 7am til 2pm. Found a decent amount of small crappies, less than 9", in shallow waters. Only caught 6 that were 9" and above. I think the big ones have already spawned and left for the deep water!

Found a few places where the gills/sunfish have moved in to spawn. Didn't see any big ones on the beds, so I didn't stop to fish. Tried drift fishing around the sunken island and only caught one catfish. I don't know where the big fish went. We sure didn't catch them! Beautiful day to be on the lake though! Glad I took the day off!

Fished Mosquito Wednesday and this morning. Catching crappie but not in the normal spots on the North end. Seems like the crappie are further south of the buoy line. We had to catch 10 little ones to find one keeper, and NO walleyes at all. I've fished Mosquito since I was a kid, it seems like that lake is getting fished out or the lake has changed so much that fishing is becoming more of a science there. Trying Milton next week for walleye in our normal spots, see how that goes.
