SoMo Fish Co
Lake Taneycomo (MO)
SoMo Fish Co reported catching Trout using the Bobbers technique and Temple Fork Outfitters Trout-Panfish Series Spinning Rods - EOL on Lake Taneycomo. Additional comments from this report: "Zero generation and high skies. We caught all our fish under a float. We caught them on everything from small hair jigs to pink power worms on 1/100 oz jig heads. Just bounce around until you find them. When you get in front of them it typically does not take long to get a bite. The big fish of the day was the one pictured a 21 1/4 inch rainbow that was released to be caught another day 👍"
St. Croix Premier Spinning Rods - EOL
$150.00 – $170.00
Reported by
Kail’s Fishing Reports
Lake Martha (MN)
great early season Crappie Lake, on the south side there is a channel, fish in and around it.. Tip your jig with a crappie minnow, or gulp, set the bobber stop to about 2'. Start at the entrance to the channel and start working your way in tell you find the school or fish. I like the Pro series Thill bobbers that are weighted, it takes less pressure to pull them down and they cast like a rocket. Crappies always feed at there level or up, stay above the fish.

Shimano Zodias Spinning Rods
$209.99 – $229.99
Reported by
Sangamon Outdoors
Pug Hole Lake (MN)
We hit the mid lake reefs and worked all the way around the the lilipads. We moved west, then north and finally east. We slid the slip bobbers up and down. We used leaches, red worms, night crawlers, jigs, jigs tipped with crappie nibblers and jigs sprayed with attractant. Everything producted. We caught bluegill, pumpkinseed, crappie, largemouth bass and northern pike. After fishing hard for bass and musky on other lakes, a slow day of just catching panfish was great!

David Jue
Caballo Reservoir (NM)
David Jue reported catching Trout using the Bobbers technique and Shimano Zodias Spinning Rods on Caballo Reservoir. Additional comments from this report: "Trout and Walleye were stationed behind big rocks with low current. In-line spinners in natural colors or white and garlic scented dough bait worked well."

Pierce Knarr reported catching Panfish / Bluegill using the Bobbers technique and Temple Fork Outfitters Trout-Panfish Series Spinning Rods - EOL on Green Lake (WI). Additional comments from this report: "Bluegills are starting to get on their beds in 7-12 feet. Using side imaging to find where they are located makes this process very easy. Pitch out a slip bobber with a small jig is the best way to catch these. We released all of our bluegills so more 10” fish can grow like the one showed!!!!"
