    Report: got a really late start, didn't get there until 4:00. We started off throwing reaction baits, cranks and blades. No takers. Then the last 25 minutes of fishing we switched to jigs and zipper worms and flipped 3 fish and missed 2 others. All about 2 pounds.

    Report: Started fishing at 7:30 a.m. from the shoreline on the back side on the south end. Fished for about two hours and got one bite and one fish. It was a female about 2 to 2.5 lbs. I did'nt see any of the other half dozen or so fisherman catch anything in that time period.

    Report: Fished Calero last Friday and this Monday in the afternoon. Spinnerbaited Bailey Cove area. 5 bass Friday, 1.5 - 2.5 lbs. 3 bass Monday same size range. One fish on 4 inch worm mojo-rigged. Water is in good shape, saw small minnows, lots of life in coves. All fish appeard to be bucks in 2-5 ft. of water. Saw swirls shallow of much larger fish several times, but couldn't tell if they were large females or carp. It's really starting to feel fishy out there!

    Report: Fished from 12-5 today, and had a fair day. Started out by losing a real good fish flipping a tree w/ a jig....she straightened my hook out!! Fished some more and picked up 2 2lbers on a white/chartreuse spinnerbait. Changed locations and immediately missed one on a zipper grub. I went biteless for awhile, then picked up a nice 3lber flipping the jig, and a small 1 1/2 lber using the jig on shallow rock. Also missed a good jig thunk. All in all a decent day, but the guys who got there in the morning really spanked em.

    Tips: The fish are definitely moving up shallower!!!

    Report: Left work a littl early Friday and fished Calero/Bailey cove area. Caught 5 from 1.5 to 2.5 lbs spinnerbaiting shoreline. Fish really nailed bait, felt much larger than they actually were. Saw several other fish caught, all pretty much clones of each other. All bucks, looks to be first wave of fish moving shallow. Should get better if weather gives us a break.
