Som and I went to the Potholes Reservoir and fished it Tuesday and Wednesday. Tuesday was tough with heavy winds and big waves, but we managed 6 smallies. We were 1 of 2 boats on the lake that day. It was brutal. On Wednesday the weather was nicer, but started out cold and windy. Som managed 2 smallies and 1 nice largie. I managed 2 smallies, a 4.8lb largie and an 8lb walleye that was caught on a jig. It was tough sight fishing with the winds, but did catch 3 of the smallmouths caught were off a protected flat on beds...all males. Best 5 on Wednesday went 18.8lbs.

Sorry, I don't know how to post pics on this site.

I'm guessing the protected cove on the main lake was Medicare beach??? Carlos and I hit Potholes for 3 days and Moses Lake for 2 more over Memorial Day Weekend. We slayed them everyday. We were in the 19-20 pound of five best everyday. Best came off Moses Lake in a 6-4 slob Carlos picked off. On Moses Lake we came upon a few stretches were we could see really big fish just slowly cruising but were not interested in anything. they just about swam through Carlos' legs off the back of the boat at one time. Oh yeah, and we saw a fish in the dunes that was pushing 7-8 lbs or bigger on Potholes. We could not believe the size of this thing. It blended in with two big carp at one point. We were sick that she wouldn't take a bait. There were 3 more around here in the 3-4 lbs class. Wish I had that much fun and success during "T" time.......
