Found some fish over the past week at the state park. Got my uncle onto a nice 16 lb fish, my mom on a few nice fish over several days, and I got one that was just shy of a whopper at 19lbs 10oz. Was a good week of fishing.

Some weird stuff man, so this week I found out you can readily catch cisco and lake whitefish in lewis and clark bay using silver spoon type baits like a swedish pimple or kastmaster jigging spoon. We got several over many days in roughly 7 feet of water but I also found them in deeper water too. The whitefish tended on the bottom while the cisco tended higher into water column all the way to just under the ice. Fun times though and apparently really good eating.
We also caught a random walleye in the bay on a swedish pimple, kinda cool it was a good size at 19.5 in

Fishing has been annoying. I keep looking for big pike and cannot find them. We have had almost 3 weeks of above freezing highs so melt is happening but I cannot find big pike. I catch small ones but nothing crazy. I have been trying all the normal area to no avail. Today I learned some stuff from a internet video and tried it out to catch cisco and I got 1 in lewis and Clark bay so that’s cool. Will keep trying.

Went looking for crappie again at Lewis and Clark at the docks. Did not find any again but found more small pike. They loved these jigging raps. I also saw a group out in middle of bay on a small hump catch Cisco and a large 13lb pike.
12.19.2020 Pike!
Tried to find crappie on the docks at Lewis and Clark but instead found schools of minnows and a lot of small of small pike. Was a lot of fun. Also caught a lake white fish.
5.2.20 Amanda’s big walleye
Took the boat out with amanda, was a nice 70 degree day but was pretty windy. Water temp was 52 degrees. We only got 1 walley in 8 ft of water on a green Lindy minnow and that was this 7 lb whopper for amanda. Otherwise we caught some small pike and white bass. Was pretty slow for everyone it seemed.
4.27.20 Pike at Lewis and Clark
Haley and I finally managed to get on some pike at Lewis and Clark today. She got her biggest fish at 12lbs and we got a lot of smaller ones too. Also some white bass. The next day was the same. Also 2 nice cat fish were caught, 1 each day.
We were down near the marina on the shallow side of the bay, seemed like some good action there. Water temp was around 50 degrees.
Lewis and clark 12/25/19
Slow day at the lake for pike fishing at the mouth of the bay,but as usual, right from 3:30 to sunset at 5 we picked up all our fish. They were in the shallows on the camp side of the bay in about 7 ft of water
Me and Haley limit out! 6.4.19
Haley and I did awesome from shore at lewis and clark tonight. They seem to be switching to crawlers, Haley did well on a plain hook while I caught all of mine on the green and silver rattletrap. Bite was best 30min before to sunset.
Cranking for eyes 5.31.19
Went out on my boat alone today and managed some fish. Water is darker than has been due to June rise staring, was super slow on lindys so switched to cranks and picked some nice fish up. Gold cranks was the color in about 13 to 14 ft at 2 to 2.5 mph
