    Report: decent water a little colder than i expected great morning gettin smallies while the clouds held got quite a few mostly soft bites or just gummed up your rod typical cold water patterns mostly plastics tried rippin still a little early for me fish kind of scattered found a few small school's off small rock points that were pretty subtle along the typical rocky banks grubs hula grubs and tubes took most of the fish after the clouds broke the wind kicked up hard enough that water was coming over the bow of the boat and the trolling motor couldnt hold up ended with a good day only had a few hours of decent fishing out of the wind , tryed pitching willows as a last minute resort to get out of the wind no fish there really soon hopefully though

    Report: Got on a pretty good bite at ignorant sunday, between my buddy and i we had over 30 both small and large mouth. Biggest one "landed" was a 3.2lbs smallie and then a 3.0 large mouth. I was throwing a jig on some rocks and got the that big fish bite, the solid thug and then all hell broke loose. I fought the fish for about 2min before i got to see her and wow it was big, i had her right at the base of my trolling motor and then SNAP she broke me off as i was reaching to lip her. This was a big fish well over 6 i would say prob close to 8. Sure am glad i was just fun fishing i should have check my line before cause the rocks really frayed it. oh well.

    Tips: Caught most fish on plastics and a few on blades. Usually when you found one there was a whole school, we pulled up on one point that looked like nothing and caught fish on almost every cast. WE fished from 3pm to about 7:30pm

    Report: Well i guess i am the only one who fishes imigrant anymore, so here you have. 30 to 35 fish one 4.3lm and 3 other lm between 2.5 and 3 pounds. The biggest small mouth was 2 pounds but most were rats. Threw swimmbaits,dropshots,jigs, blades, and darter head worms. It really didn't seem to matter. Then the skiers started to show up and the typical emigrant wind started to blow so we got off the water about 11:15am.

    Report: Emigrant Lake is down about 6' now & the water is not quit as clear as it was a week ago, however the bass hitting anything you offer them. My fly rod popper did well. The best rubber was the 3" senko in any color you wanted to use. We started at 6A & had about 6 or 8 other bassers out there working them over also. Got real warm by noon so we went home.

    Report: Fished from 3-8pm. The bigger smallmouth are out in force. Landed 3, one 4.8, 3.2, and one largemouth at around 9lbs. Swimbaits get the big bites even with all the pleasure boaters. Threw a jig and caught some smaller fish. Did not try much else but there are plenty of smallmouth willing to hit. With the water falling the points are the best bet. Good luck and go big.
