4/18/2008 6:28:00 PMI just moved to Chattaroy. Had been in Shadle Park area, so I fished Long Lake A LOT LAST YEAR. Just (last spring) took up fishing. Good excuse to keep the dirt off of the duck boat all summer. So, now plan on fishing Eloika. Only 5 miles to the launch. I can handle that commute with these gas prices. Sooooo, looking for some advice or tips, guide as to where to go. I can take my 16' War Eagle through ANYTHING so the grass is no problem. Any advice?

4/19/2008 4:33:00 PMGood looking fish Paul and Sammi, I was the guy who was about to dare the wind that day you were leaving the lake. Anyhow, i missed 3 nice crappies that day. They are fun but i have not really got a handle how to fish them quite yet, but they are fun, but not fun like the bass. That is for sure.
Honkster man, the lake is this full every year ar this time? I flipped a lot the other day got one hit and landed on nice 2.14 oz. largemouth. That is all, i could not fish the shallows much do to the wind. When you say pull across the top, you mean like with a rippel behind and all or a few inches under? just a simple question, well one more, u must fish here often huh>? Leter .
