This is kinda late,but I been off work since friday noon. Anyway,launched slayerboat at 8am on sat. and tried a couple drifts near stoll mt. but nada.Went over to bluffs to right of sucker cove and started throwing a twister to shore and working it back at mid-depth and lower.Caught 7 or 8 little pike from 10-13".Missed prolly 7 or 8 also.Worked the bluffs from s-cove almost to Lazy boy.Saw some dudes trolling in the middle catch a large pike maybe 8 lbs or so-maybe bigger.
Anyway headed back to Stoll Mt. and tried a drift and zilch but the wind began and on the next drift I popped a 17.5" bo on a bubble/worm.Next drift lost a NICE bo at least 20" plus,he grabbed 30 ft of line the instant I set the hook and then did a nice cartwheel and spit the hook.After a couple fruitless drifts I went back to camp to eat lunch with my wife. While eating the wind started howling from a different direction(NW versus SSW).Fished till 230 pm but no more bites. The lake was turning over and there was algae everywhere,makes the fishing tougher,IMO.
Woot, Slayer man you rusty or something? Only I miss that many fish. Haha atleast the bite was good keeps you busy, and thats a nice looking bo, hehe I seen lures bigger then you pike though.
Hey Slayer, it was the bluff area where Eric and i found a bunch of small pike about 10 days ago. I have no idea why they are hanging in that area? I usually find more Pike on the rocky area's down lake in the fall. We didn't even get so much as a follow down there?
take a close look at that picture it has vertical stripes .....there was an article written by mike kennedy in fishing and hunting new where one of his buddys caught a tiger out of eleven mile ...
ive heard that the small pike sometimes start out with the vertical strips and then as they get older it changes. If that is not the case, then i have caught tigers and pike at Skaqway
I think its a pike, we caught several just like that 2 weeks ago. It doesn't make sense for the DOW to be stocking one predator like tiger muskie and lauching an all out campaign (unsuccessful so far as I can tell) against another.
That line of thinking makes sense, Talo. That is like having a lake with carp, and then stocking that lake while mirror carp! DOW doesn't want either. Since they have pike already, why add tiger muskie?
As of July this year there was no plan to stock 11-mile with tiger muskie. Here is a link that shows the scheduled stocking for this year as well as the actual stocking for last year.
Got out tonight again. I’m trying to fish as much as possible. Got four eyes and lost several more. Three came on the lucky craft crank. One came on a craw colored rat l trap. Two were good sized keepers. One came around 630 or so. The rest came free the sun went down.

I think it’s time we start a 2020 bragging board. I miss the old ones and checking out everyone’s nice fish...let’s just be sure to refrain from turning it into something else like a report thread. I’ll kick it off with this bass I got recently. If we could sticky this so everyone can see it and...
Hi everyone! Before I break any rules on here I have a really dumb question. Shouldn't the Colorado Fishing Reports section on this forum be about fishing reports? I guess people have a different definition of fishing report but mine is that it's a brief description of conditions, what is...
Bought a bunch of craw colored cranks and a couple others...some new to me, some old staples. Crawfish are such an abundant food source for our gamefish and all of the fish that I’ve pulled in recently, whether they’re trout, eyes or bass, were spitting up craws or had them in their stomachs...
On Father's Day, Sam and I took my Dad fishing and had an INCREDIBLE DAY!
All 3 of us landed some really nice Trout, river fishing the Colorado River! We got into Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Cutbow Trout...The fish were big and the current was strong so the fights were insane! Sam hooked...
