I am going to hit Bitter this Sunday. I will be fishing with my grandpa who has been taking who has been doing decent flipping jigs tipped with a minnow near weedbeeds.

Has anybody been catching fish using any other methodology? Plastics? Rapalas? Worms?

Whats my best bet to outfish hin? What colors have been producting?

I will post the results next week. Thanks

Last Saturday was "ok" plulling plugs. Like Mike said nothing like it had been. Sunday was the worst day of fishing in three years. Hot and dead calm =======no bite.

I was out Lynn last Thurs 7-28, tried pulling cranks 15ft caught a couple. Then moved to tree's in evening and we probably caught 20. Slip bobber and leech were ticket. I also tried cattail the same day, 1 nice one and 1 little. On bitter are you fishin the south end or north, maybe it doesn't matter as long as your next weeds. Is Swim's gills bitin?

I haven't been out to bitter in a while but I'd try shallow runner raps in 7-9 ft with a slow troll. It's always worked well for me.

Does anyone know if the fishing is still hot late August through October? I'm planning a trip late August and mid October.

Talked to my gramps today. He just got off Bitter with 2 limits and said he threw 9 keepers back. That was at 2pm today. Said he was drifting with spinners and crawlers. Cant wait till get out there on Sunday. I don't know if he was North or South, but I will let you know how things turn out this weekend. I fished with him several times this spring and we always fished the south end, but I didn't ask him where he was this time.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
