Fished from 6:15pm-7:40pm; mostly sunny; hot and humid; temps about 90; light SE winds.

I was the only one out there. The water was very stained - and I mean VERY stained. Why the hell was it like this?

Started off by walking all the way around the lake, past the north shoreline to the trees on the west shoreline. Threw several baits including 6" Slug-go's, 5" Senko's, spinner baits. There was virtually no action at all.

Wound up with a true skunk. Sure... I didn't stay around until dark, but this lake was not going to produce this night.

And like Augy was saying in an earlier post, the goose shit is absolutely everywhere! What a shame - a beautiful forest preserve lake but forget about bringing the kids or having a picnic because goose shit is out of control.

Time to give Beck Lake a break for a while. And the water quality was atrocious.

Too bad Jason. Sorry to hear about the skunkin. I wonder if the water is stained with goose shit?

You perfectly described my one and only trip to Beck. I know it has its moments, but when that is place is dead, it is DEAD.
