    Re: Clinton Lake this weekend (HaleDamage)

    Rick,
    I have always liked fishing rivers and creeks, so if you can wind your way slowly through all the standing timber and go under the bridge, fish everything past there up in the river. There is all kinds of good stuff to fish. Chunk a spinnerbait, and if that doesn't work chunk a spinnerbait. That or flip a creature bait or worm into the cover. Remember that back in rivers and creeks to fish the bends and corners and not the straightaways, along with all the side coves, etc... Usually, you can have it all to yourself, too.

    I did hear a nasty rumor that the walleye were going crazy there about a week ago. Couldn't keep them off the hook.

    Sounds like fun Rick. Just heard a report that Clinton has a bunch of largemouth in the 12" plus range re emerging. Good luck.
