Fished right by the creek access, casted 10ft away and landed a good 2lber largemouth...sadly too many bullheads.

Dam
I first tried fishing on the Peltier Lake dock. Lots of underwater vegetation fishing from the dock with only a small largemouth strike. Lots of bluegills and sunnies though. I then migrated a bit North and went shore fishing on the public lake/creek water access. Below the dam area cast towards the cattails, I had caught some decent 2lber - 3lber Northerns. Beware, there are lots of underwater structures directly in front of the dam so it's not a good area for swimbaits and open hook setups.

First time at this lake. The algae was so thick the water was solid green. I’m running a basic kayak with no electronics, so I just followed contour lines on the map and threw everything I had at vegetation that hit the surface. One fish but that’s all it takes for a good day!

I took my kayak out here recently to target Largemouth. The shallows are choked out right now with milfoil and pads. I caught a few from the thick stuff on a frog but my best bites came on a swimjig while working it through the milfoil.

Winds were gusty so we fished the eastern shore line which provided some calmer waters. Two guys in the boat one throwing various swim jig trailer combos managed to boat about a dozen. The Ned and FattyZ ( t rig) another 10.

I was hoping to fish the lake before the weeds & milfoil hit the surface but it happened quickly. It appeared they had sprayed the lake recently but that hadn't killed off any weeds. With the wind I had to fish the inside weedline, docks and timber. I wound up catching about 10 fish, a few 2lbs and the biggest 2.5lbs. Water temps were 65-69 degrees.
