Williamsport fishing report.
I know some on here are fishing the kayak tournament in a few weeks and thought I would give lake observations from today. Water temp is 88 degrees in Blue Cat and Shell Cracker. Water is pea soup green in both lakes with Shell Cracker being really dark. There are plenty of minnows in both lakes all about 1.5 inches long and traveling in schools of 40 or 50. I did not see any huge balls of shad....just many small groups around the lake. Fish were busting the surface on a regular basis the 2 hours I was out there. I did not see any schools of fish but the singles were all around the shore and in mid lake also. I can't say for sure they were all large mouth as there are many hybrids in the lake....I can tell you they were very big fish. I tried to get into the big boys with no luck. I did however get into a ton of bass like the one in the pic. I was casting a Killer Klatt trout Magnet and they killed it. They were all about 9 or 10 inches long and put up a good fight on the 2# test line. The fish really looked healthy and fat. It was a fun couple of hours but after my clothes were drenched decided time to come home. If I get back out there before the kayak tournament will post another report.
