    Patoka

    Hello All,

    Heading to Patoka this weekend for fun fishing, haven't fished there this year. How's the fishing been? Any good? Any Grass on the main? Just trying to decide if I show go Main lake or go to the creeks. Any help will be appreciated!

    Fishing isn't any better than it had been. Could go and catch 15-20lbs or not even catch a single fish. Ask me how I know.

    The "not even catch a single fish" pattern has been pretty reliable for me the last couple trips.

    Hey Guys thanks for the info! There are weeds around the islands & around the island in front of Osbourne. Also found a few other spotty patches of grass, just no fish in them.. Typical Patoka, fished 4 hrs Friday & had 4- keepers for around 12.5 lbs & 7 short fish... Fished the same pattern all day Saturday & had 1- 15" fish and 4 shorts!

    I would say Friday was a stellar day for you 4 hrs and 4 keeps. Not bad.

    Don't tell the DNR, they will spray those areas also.
