Sunny; temps in low 70's; south winds 5-15mph; fished from 4:30pm - 6:30pm.

Got a late start but it didn't seem to matter much. Worked the heck out of Timber Bay (not the official name but I think that's what i'll call it from now on) to no avail. Oh, did get 1 crappie on a white twister-tail. And whats more, there was virtually zero action happening - no fish jumping, none chasing lures, etc. First time i've ever experienced that at IG. Turnover perhaps?

Saw several others fishing with same results. Worked a variety of spinnerbaits, crankbaits, even some soft plastics. Alex worked many baits as well.

At least the crappie kept the skunk off. :shock:

where is Independence Grove I heard great things about it.

With the warm weather that we have been having I am sure that turnover has not yet occured. I think that yesterday was just a tough day. Glad you atleast got the crappie.

Once this crazy weather goes back to normal, I think that the fishing should get better. Don't give up on IG. It's awesome in the colder months.

Tomorrow is kinda warm, maybe ill give it a try since you say so. But if I get skunked its Phil's fault.

I fished Independence Grove about three weeks ago and I also got the skunk. It was my first time out there and I fished from the fishing pier. Independence Grove seems like an awesome lake, I'm definitely going to try it next season with hopefully better results. :wink:
