I already posted this report but apparently there were some technical difficulties so it didn't show up. So here it is Went out to Larson by myself yesterday (didn't have time to call anyone up and my dad was watching football)So I had my mom drop me off for a few hours. When I got there I tried everything in my tacklebox. Really. Lipless cranks, shallow cranks, spinner baits, weedless frogs, jerkbaits, swimbaits, and topwaters. Few hits but nothing other than that. I talked to some guys on the dock, one was catching pumkimseed sunfish for dinner (he had a few in his bucket), and the other was fishing for crappie. Believe it or not 1 of the guys caught a turtle, so I netted it for him. I used my pliers, took the turtle of the hook, and back he went. It was time for me to go so I said goodbye and started walking out. But, on the way out I saw a perfect place to throw a weedless senko in a pocket in the lilly pads so I take my last lucky 3 casts and what do you know it, on my 3rd cast I see my line quickly jump so I set the hook. Right off the bat I know It's a good fish. He almost broke of 3 times thanks to the lilly pads but lukily he didn't. I landed him, took a few pics and ran all the way back to the dock give the bass to the guy keeping fish for dinner so he can have a nice meal and left. The reason this report was a 5 is because it was very peaceful on the lake, I got to talk to some nice fellow fisherman, and I did land 1 nice LM bass in the 3-4 pound range. No doubt I'll be back with kwcc next weekend!!!

Way to go Logan. I grew up right there and fished that lake all of the time in the late 60s and 70s you would'nt believe the fish that were in that lake. Glad to see a few left. Water is very high right now because of the constuction going on near by, the out flow is backed up.

it's a shame to see such a nice size bass get taken home for dinner. one reason why there are very few left to catch. but nice catch

What is the size regulation for keeping LMB at Larson this year?

pika206- I'm pretty sure that the statewide slot regulation for lms (no fish between 12" and 17", only one above 17") is the rule for larson. I've looked over the state regulation pamphlet and Laron isnt in the special rules, which means the statewide regluations are in effect there.
