Lake Geneva, Walworth County (all postings)

using crayfish imitators. Also noticed he's out with the crappie gear. The rock bass have turned on in the past two days (excellent eating... Yea really ). couple more pics. Time to drag the boat out guys, not seeing much boat traffic. Liane @ The Pier

Snatched the camera from the boat today. John told me the bass are hanging around submerged timber in the 12ft range. Here are a few pics

fished with Bryan and Kevin, starting at 6:30. boated a 3lb smallie in Cisco Bay, then moved into Geneva Bay, picked up a few smaller fish, lm and sm, including a 20.25" largemouth. not sure of the weight, battery in scale took a dump. fished a few more spots, Bryan picked up another 3lb lm. slow night, but could`nt ask for better conditions. all fish cpr`d. good luck, good fishing, Woody!!

Got a couple from the pier with some tips from John @ the pier. Thanks John. All on plastic jigs

Late post but fished on Monday and Tuesday with Doug Becker. We had to fish hard but were rewarded with numbers and size. Temps were 50 to 53. Most fish were males but a few females have started showing up. Mostly LM's but some nice SM's mixed in. 30-40 fish each day all on the Defender jig, 1/2 and 3/4 in 8-15 ft.

Ha! That's John. I couldn't resist sharing his new look. Liane @ The Pier

Fished wed afternoon from 1-4 Found water temps 50-52 on Northshore and 55-57 on southshore. Caught fish slow dragging or hopping jigs and powercraws. Could not get any of them to chase spinnerbaits or crankbaits as yet. Key was to fish shady sides of docks. Especially the deeper docks were the water was around 10 ft in front of them. Many fish suspended in same areas only deeper. Fish are staging waiting for the right water temp to move up. Next week could be a real awesome prespawn bite.

Weeds just starting to develop. A few nice crispy green weeds mixed in with the dead ones.

Had 4 fish in 45 min that total wt. would have gone over 16lbs including a 4.11 lmb and a 3.10 smb

Who is the guy in the bibs with the white beard?

The Linn Pier boat launch is now open and John has been hammering on the bass. Go out and get ya some! Liane @ The Pier

First time out with my boat on this lake. Didn't do as well as I would have hoped. My partner caught a small smallie on his third cast and a few others awhile later. Unfortunately, for me I got skunked . My depthfinder was not being cooperative making it hard to find weedbeds. So we stuck to the north side of the lake, fishing the shallows and piers, but still had no luck. Saw a few walleye trolling around in the shallows, which I thought was pretty cool. Hopefully some of this warm weather can warm the lake to make for better fishing.

Got out for a few hours this morning with Captain mel,first few casts and I lost a pig at the boat-big largemouth.Very slow bite after that ended better with mel getting a nice 27 inch 6.5lb walleye in 8 ft of water.Thanks mel for showing me the new hds9 with the underwater camera hooked up to it, has to be seen to be believed.

Prov,the boat doc in Silver lake is a certified Minn Kota dealer and service technician,I will be locking my collar down also,I also put the link system on yesterday on my terrova,what an amazing piece of equipment,I can see that I am gonna be putting some weight on once i figure all the features out,talk about fishing with nothing else to do,laziest invention ever.

Anybody catching panfish in williams bay.

Prov that sucks about your terrova.mine deployed once in rough water and ever since I take the time to slide the collar down so it can't happen again,even when trailering.the shaft should be lifetime warrenty the labor should be well less than 100$. I got the chance to shake the boat down today,played around with the new link system.i managed 1 musky about 28" while learning about the "follow the contour" feature.pretty cool stuff.i still can't fish worth a damn but by golly I've got some cool electronics!!! Also,they striped the parking area at linn rd launch today,looks like its ready to go!

BASSONLY I sent you private PM regarding Williams Bay launch. Are you sure you were at that launch? Trinkes requires any one who launches to disengage their trailer from their vehicle.
