Thanks for the report.
Great report. I went to sail cove in Late May and you couldnt even see a fish in the water. Water level was real high too. I didnt even get a single bite then. On a side note, those bluegill especially the smaller ones will even bite a small ball of cheese balled up on a treble hook if they are hungry enough.
Thank you, Eah and Castle. It has been a big change with the seasons. Bluegills in particular seem to congregate near the dam in the fall, but the biggest fish that I caught was a Redear. My wife took a photo of the fish that I kept on her cellphone, but I don't think she knows how to transfer it to my computer.
I forgot to mention, this spring was particularly bad at Perris Lake. I think it was due to the cold weather and cold water being pumped in, which kept the lake from warming up as quickly as usual. I did fish Sail Cove several times this spring, but usually didn't catch much. Most of the few fish that were biting seemed to be larger bass and carp (which were fun but difficult to land on my light line and with them swimming under the pier and around cables, etc.), although I was fishing for panfish with smaller worms. Now the situation is a different story altogether.
