Can y’all not “swing on em” so hard. Leave your flipping sticks at home. I caught multiple fish in the moot this week that had half their face torn off already. I doubt that happens with a dropshot and reel up hook set. The ol two fisted bubba hook set is not required. And leave a little room between yourselves and fellow anglers. No need to get within talking distance. And put the damn binoculars away….

Not just there. Been club paper tournaments on my lake every weekend. Guys wait in line to catch the same fish. Saw 2 from the pontoon that had hooks in them. Went back out, caught them and removed the hooks. Didn't realize you needed a 3.0 EWG hook to catch a bed fish. Glad it will be over soon out here.
Pre-spawn only for me

We didn't even smallmouth fish much this trip. I was with my cousin who likes to catch more fish so we were fishing largemouth and rock bass and caught our limit of walleye everyday. And we did most of our largemouth fishing with a ned rig and light rods for fun. "swing on em" was probably misworded by myself.Originally Posted by Hollada
When I was fishing the Moot, I didn't see this. Maybe I was in there before the "crowd" shows up. I'm in by 6 and out by 10 on weekdays only. Saw a lot of fish on the Livescope and they were very skidish, caught some nice ones and away I went. The fish I caught had not been caught before. I fish maybe once a week.
How’s the moot nowadays?
lots of weeds? Are there rocks there?
I haven’t fished it yet.
No weeds
nice.
was out yesterday and the mile roads shallow got weedy.
I’ll try the moot next
Fished the moot 4 days ago. Covered 30-40 beds, all empty. Don’t know if the cold snap pushed them out or they were done.

Same with the mile roads.
week before they were all over 3-4 fow near beds and then poof gone.
I noticed it got a dirtier in the shallows there.
I found them in 8-10 fow though.
And schools and schools of white bass in 12-13 fow. Livescope made it a blast catching them one after another.
Judging from the photos I saw today every bed in The Moot had a boat on it today. Probably someone standing in it to. The place was packed. Time for real fishing.
Where do you see the pics?
Friend was out there with 5 other boats.
Thought about going there this week, but think I'll opt for some other places. Most females have left the areas and only males guarding fry. I'll give the poor fish a break. I was up north about a week ago and the fish hadn't bedded yet on the inland lakes. Just a few had moved up. I was surprised. This past week was probably prime if you hit it then.
Ah ok cool
They probably weren’t fishing boats Steve is referring to. 3000 or so party boats….
