Bloodkitty Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Dude Murray is a beast of a different nature... i used to work there at the dock n stuff. That lake can be such a headache at times and epic in seconds. We should hook up sometime and hit it up. #MurrayMonsterz I might have to check it out sometime. I'm still trying to get Murray figured out completely. Every time I think I got it dialed in, it chews me up and spits me back out lol I spent over 70 days on Murray last year before I moved. That place is so tough at times, but if you keep at it, you'll be there at the right time. My old go to: cast a weedless hudd gill from the shallow "no fishing" buoy (opposite launch ramp) to the boat house and crawl it til it gets crushed. The biggest bass I've ever witnessed in person followed my first cast ever of my OG natty trout at Lake Murray. There are serious beasts in there. Not surprisingly, the boat dock is a popular haunt for them. The few times I've fished down there in SD I've spent most of my time at Murray and Jennings. I'm sticking with Murray, because I know there's some monsters in there. Is Jennings a waste of time? Aesthetically, I like being there a lot. I've never seen water that clear and having bald eagles fly over you carrying a trout is awesome. I've had big followers, but from what I hear everyone says that and no one catches much.

hydrocephalic Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 I fished Jennings a fair amount, and I just had a difficult time getting fish to commit. Water is typically gin clear, and there are tons of downed trees, old plastic construction fencing, and other random crap to hang up baits on. I had the most success, generally, fishing parallel to long points, especially at Murray and Jennings. Topo maps help.

Low&Slow Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Jennings bass are by far the most stuck up bass in the city. You have to be a mile away for them to bite. biggfeast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nadinesmom Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) Loveland still is epic, especially now. Was at Morena a few weeks ago. As the other posted said it was dead and muddy. I would be out there more if there wasn't all the crackheads breaking into cars and stealing stuff. Those are the locals, that little town has the worst human beings on earth, i grew up a few towns over and i've never run into more scumbags in my entire life. they're all a bunch of grade-a assholes.

Darth Baiter Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Loveland was awesome, I wish I had been throwing Swimbaits back when I used to fish it. Low&Slow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
