Two of us have been hitting Indian Lake once or twice weekly for the past four or five weeks, using the Flicker Shad program popular this year. We only spend about 3-4 hours in the morning and then get off the water. Friday morning was typical of everyone's results: dink-to-legal ratio being about six to one. We ended up with six 15-17 inch keepers, a couple of healthy white bass, three edible channels and one very grumpy 33 inch flathead. The hope is that everyone has been treating the dinks with TLC so we can catch them again this autumn and the next couple of years when they will be legal (and then some). Only question is whether they will remember what Flicker Shads look (and feel) like.

I've lost a couple dinks because of the treble piercing the bottom of the gills.That white thin pc of skin that their chin would be. Trebles don't want to come out easy in that spot. Those dinks thrash all about and half the time they come up in a live bait rig. Now the channelcats, a fourth of them are blinded with all 3 tines of a treble in their eye socket with all the thrashing they put out.
I've been running them for 4 or 5 years and the thing I notice is color. Certain colors each year. This year flashy clown has been consistant. Years past it was party perch, pink tiger,black lime bully,tenn shad,outbreak. I ran a dry spell this morning and slapped on party perch and game on.

How's the weed situation bohannan66? Got less than a week and a half and then a 2 week of vacation to pound them. Usually the quality improves now but last water temp readings last sunday showed 70°. Got the new servo on the trollmaster pro so i'm back in business.
Trolled nearly 2 hrs after work and managed zero keepers out of 12 dinks and a channelcat. East half of lake is chocolate milk. Main lake less than 1' clarity.Still pulling up lots of green watermilfoil weeds and patches of cottonwood.Party perch got most of the action.New servo working like a champ!!!! Water Temp: 66.6°
Sounds like rain will hold off til afternoon tomorrow.Radio said heavy 30+ mph wind but internet says less than 12 mph so we'll see.Sunday sounds pretty nasty.
