Happy Friday,
Contrary to my report last Friday, it appears the fishing is still good you just have to know where to go. All area and regional lakes are reporting water temps in the low to mid 80s. From my past experience that usually means the fishing slows down, (or maybe I should give up fishing and go back to golf), at any rate here's what blogger A dogg had to say about the fishing after reading last week's entry.
"I have been doing excellent!! Yesterday, I caught a 4 pound bass and 3 bass around 2 pounds. Saturday was one of my best fishing days of the year! I caught 18 bass, only 1 of them was not over a pound, 5 of them were over 3 pounds and 1 was 6 pounds. This is in a public lake at that! It is kind of a secret that there are so many big bass in this lake."
At his request, I can't share the location. Kind of like my neighbor John who fishes a farm pond around Cameron Missouri. Last Sunday, he says, the largemouth bass were hitting his spinner lures in the heat of the afternoon. Remember last Sunday, it was close to 100.
I asked, You answered
I've received a couple of good pictures of some large fish recently. Here's 10-year old Logan from Smithville, who caught this mammoth Drum Fish in Gulf of Mexico back in March.
Nice Fish. Next up, check out Paul & his daughter Laura Scharringhausen. They caught these muskies at Lake Pomme De Terre. Larry's fish was 42 inches & Laura's was 37" 
Unfortunately, high water levels and dingy water, Larry says, has resulted in some slow fishing. Good luck, finding those hot spots.
Have a great weekend,
Brett
