Another good day at Newman Lake. Arrived about 6a.m. My wife and I took a couple friends out fishing for the first time. Everyone caught fish and had a great time! The water temp started out at 78.5 and ended up 83.5. So it was plenty warm! Not to mention it was a HOT day out there!! We ended up retaining 28 crappie. BIG fish fry this weekend! All fish were caught between 11-13ft. Mostly casting and some vertical jigging. No Muskie sightings today. Dang it! All crappie retained were between 9 & 12 inches. Needless to say all the pleasure boaters were out in force by afternoon! So see ya! Until next time...

Hey, great day! I had a good day last week hitting perch and bass, but couldn't find the crappie. I can see already I wasn't using the right lure (didn't try any curly-tailed jigs)

I can't quite make out from your picture where on the lake you were. It doesn't look like the south end, maybe that upper NW corner? Mind sharing? (I'd understand if you didn't. hehheh)

TroutCowboy: I'll tell you what....I will tell you where we were if you tell me where to catch the perch and bass?
