Fished from about 9am to 3pm, saw many cruising smallies but they were very spooky and the glass smooth water made them even more so. It wasn't until about 1:30 after the wind had picked up that I got the first fish of the day. 3.2lbs from a dock in 5 feet of water. After that it was 2 on back to back casts under the same dock followed by a 4th and 5th 20 yards later. All fish came on bottom, no takers on a moving reaction style bait. Pics loaded funny, but are of the 4.0 and 4.4lb smallies, all the rest were between 3-4lbs.

Fish are shallow right now and pairing up for the spawn, use the topo map feature on this site and you will see where to start! Good luck!

I appreciate the compliment, thank you! I used the topo map on this site and weather conditions to plan a trip last year that produced a 8+lb largemouth followed by a 6lber! I'm not trying to be aloof, I just like to see people use the resources at hand, break down the water / season and plan an attack! Look at the map, read past reports from Goodwin, then pm me and tell me what you're thinking, if I can add anything to help you out I will.

I appreciate that. I have been trout fishing my whole life (fly and other methods) and took up bass fishing this year. It is fun. Your reports along with the help of pondjumperz has helped me to catch 5 bass this year which isn't alot but I'm getting there.... Hopefully in a few years I can help others out too. Thanks for all of the posts over the last few years. You have caught some nice fish which motivates me.

No sweat, it's important to pass on the knowledge, just want to pass it along to the right people these days... Best of luck to you!
