Eyehunter Minnewaska has some very nice fish in the lake, lots of nice fish last Fall same size range Corey is talking about. It sounds like you need to learn how to locate those fish. Sounds like you had a great day Corey, a few lakes around Morris have been giving up some nice fish in between the constant weather changes.

How is the bass fishing on this lake?? I was up there a few weeks ago for a wedding and didn’t have a chance to get on the lake??

Cory,

Your posts on Minnewaska have been very informative for the people who really read into them.

BTW, I met you at the ramp the other morning and we were talking about exactly what you posted above regarding the change of location of walleyes in the lake. The bass guys throwing hard baits know exactly what you are talking about.

Bassman,

You need to get down to Waska. It can take a little while to figure out, but it is loaded with 3-4lb. largemouth and smallmouth.

Corey...great job on all the postive posts on Waska!!!

I am an Amelia and was gong to hit Waska over the weekend...but Amelia was not only whitecaps...but foamy!! I decided to wait.

Keep up the good work on keeping us up to speed...oh ya...we all know Waska is not worth fishing anyway...right wink.gifwink.gifwink.gif

It is not hard to catch bass on waska right now. Anything will work. I was out on Friday for the first time in the morning on the Starbuck end. Went to Priest Point and caught a few small eyes on fatheads then went to the south shoreline and worked a jig off the bottom in about 14' of water and nailed a 19 1/2". Had to leave and did not make it out the rest of the weekend. I think I caught 50 bass in the 4 hours I was out and I was fishing for eyes.

Corey

Where did you catch all the nice eyes? If you want to share but not post it here you can email me at [email protected] . Always looking for good spots to fish and to take my two young boys out fishing.

when your talking loaded with 3-4 lb fish, is it hard to find these fish?

Only fished minnewaska twice. Once just kind of screwing around and then last sunday spent about 3 hours chasing smallies. Only caught 8 but 3 were between 18 and 19 inches. Fish were really scattered where i was fishing just catching one here and one there, not really that grouped up. Just wondering how the smallie bite is typically, more numbers or size or both. Also, generally, what is the preferred approach for largemouth, deep, shallow, or in between; weedlines, pencil reeds, docks, rocks, flats, etc. Not looking for specific spots, just a general idea to help get me started.

Are most of the bigger bass deeper? I was out there memorial weekend in the tsunami waves and only caught little ones. What lures? And where, the points and boulders?

We fished smallies on sunday and got them in 4-7 fow. Gravel/Rock areas/transitions. Also saw quite a few of them just cruising the bottom.

eye10,

I WAS feeling you're frustration, but then you go and say the lake's full of 3-5# bass and inviting everyone to come up and EAT them and that there taking over the lake. Good thing waska isn't gonna be your "home" lake any more. BTW, 1-2# LM, yes, but 3-5#??? At least Corey's info is accurate, although I do admit I wish everyone didn't have to know about it. Still gotta be able to catch em, just don't enjoy it as much with the added # of boats. Yes, Selfishness is my middle name. lol. I'm workin on it!

      Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology.  Battery powdered items will always have their place.  I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!!  That would be a bit loud and smokey!

      That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty.  Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.   As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows,  you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.

      This is the bait frig at L&M in Virginia, the other day. Also, added Highway 65 bait.

      any idea on the going rate for leeches.......not by the lb????/ havent bought any in a few years!!!

      I think electric items have their places, I just don't think large commercial jobs are going to be able to work well with them. Can't see a logging crew out in the woods all day changing batteries!
