I used a crankbait on an ultralight rod for the bass (they were in that 10-14 inch range like you said) and for the bullheads chicken livers on bigger medium action rods.

It seemed very deep where i was fishing. is the main launch area a bit shallower?
Also wanted to try the Ranger's cove or second launch area on Round Valley (not sure what it's real name is). it's further southwest of the two main launches at the northwest side of the lake.

I've been hitting Round Valley pretty much every day for the past three weeks. Picking off Trout from the shoreline almost each trip, tried trolling on the boat for a little while one day last week but didn't get anything (Was only able to troll around for about 45 minutes before it got dark though).

Fished Spruce tuesday night with Jigman and it was Slooooooow for us.
Not sure why but thats the way it goes sometimes....
I caught one Largemouth on a shiner about 15/16 inch and one tiny bullhead on a liver. Both fish just gave a couple small taps and then nothing. When I went to reel in to check my baits they were both on LOL. The LM didn't even fight just came in with a few small tugs and then just rolled over and came in. Fish was quite cold to the touch so was curious what the water temps were but haven't been out on it with my boat in about three weeks.
Word to the wise, WATCH out for that mud!!! I was walking around looking for another spot where I saw some fish busting and started walking closer to the water and before I knew it I was STUCK!!! Almost pulled my hips out of their sockets trying to get out and then sure enough I fall! Flat on my back in the shit mud!!! Yelling to Jeremy for a LITTLE help but he didn't hear me so then rolled over and was elbow deep in it to finally get myself free SUCKED BIG TIME!!!!!!!

Zach - assumed you've been out but no porn on fb as of late, shiners and power baits as usual?

Getanet - needed a pic of that one, sounds pretty funny actually no offense

Andre - well done on the Chinese delivery, might be be best fishing tip I've heard in sometime

Mud / Andre - you guys have success with the livers on rv at all? Mud sounds like you've been using em. Rv has been a tougher lake for me to figure out. Need to invest more time over there

Nope, just been casting lures and fly fishing the shoreline the past few weeks.

Lol... Luckily the mud dried by the time we left! I knew I heard something off in the distance but couldn't make out what he was saying. I later learned he was saying help... Soggy bottom at it again!

Good times nonetheless! Wish the action was better though. Maybe the livers I had were off? Do wipers and cats prefer Perdue and Tyson over other varieties? Haha...
