Fished the Mississinewa today from about 9am to 1pm. Water is looking great, somewhat stained, muddier the farther away from the dam you go...wish is normal. Water temp was 74 degrees. The lake was pretty much flat calm except for a few skiers and some jet skis. The fishing was slow I thought. I caught two keepers maybe 15" long, three dinks and lost two that might have gone 14". But it was a beautiful day...AND I wasn't in a classroom!!! Not as good as Weidner21, but for an old guy I did okay.

Fished Mississinewa today from about 8am to 12:30. Water temp was 58 degrees. I was kind of surprised it was that low. Water was muddy to stained. I did catch 8 bass, 7 of them on spinner baits and one on a crank. All were dinks except one that was about two pounds. It came on a spinnerbait.

yeah they drew it down yesterday. I was out saturday had a handfull of dinks, and a smallie that just went 14 inches, and a 3 and a half pounder ( drum that is).
I've never caught a drum there and I fish there a lot. Interesting.
