17th, Friday, fished from 4 to 5:30. NE winds at 10-15 mph. Temps in the low to mid 30's. Freeline with minners at south end of lake.

First cast fish on. Decent 14-15 incher. Rest of the outing not a damn thing. Good to get a bass on at Beck early in the season. Will post pic when I can download it from Meena's phone.

18th, Saturday, fished from 11 to 2:30. NNE winds at 15-20mph. Temps in upper 30's. Freeline with minners from yesterday.

Started along the east bank and worked my way up to the northern most part of the lake for about 2 hours with nothing. Decided to try the south end where I fished yesterday and whaddya know...first cast fish on. A nice 17-18 inch LM. Then nothing. Had to pick up my girl from work. Took a photo of it but I didn't store it right in my girls phone. Time for a new camera. 8)

LMAO! He showed me that pic too. 25 incher, ehhhh, I don't know about that. That's an awful big bass. Not saying Beck doesn't hold such great bass but some anglers do stretch the truth a bit.

BF...yup, that was me sitting on my minner bucket on the south end. You should of stopped by. I would of shared my minners withcha.

Beck is starting to look like my primary fishing destination again. I think it's going to be a good year.

BTW, anybody know when they open the boat launches? I'd like to take my canoe out come this weekend.

Theres a group or a family of coyotes living in there somewhere. Ran into them last summer on a few occasions. Pretty cool encountering wild animals when you fish Beck. Plenty of deer too. Saturday I saw a beaver swimming right at me. Went to take a pic and disappeared.
