Lake Geneva 6/6/10 -
6/13/10
Lake Geneva has been pretty good for this time of year. I’m having a
hard time getting a consistent pattern, the tried and true locations
over my guiding career aren’t producing well, so we’re moving around
more than we’d like but we are finding some fish. If you want to
fish a bunch of fish, it hasn’t been a problem but saying you want
to catch numbers of smallmouth and largemouth only could prove
difficult.
Smallmouth bass are done spawning. The smallies I’ve been catching
have been in the 12-15 ft depth range close to the typical spawning
flats. I’ve been either catching them on 4 inch green pumpkin worm
fished wacky style, or Carolina rigging a 5 inch green pumpkin
lizard. The best location has been by Black Point or by Belvidere
Park.
Largemouth bass are starting to move to the mid depth weeds in the
12-15 ft range. The best location has been by Big Foot Beach or in
Geneva Bay. The best lure has been Carolina rigging a 5 inch green
pumpkin lizard or using a 4 inch worm on a shaky head jig. I have
been catching a few fish on split shot rigged nightcrawlers, but the
problem is the over abundance or rock bass.
Rock bass continue to be all over the lake. They are very easy to
catch using a nightcrawler on a split shot. The best depth is 10-12
ft of water. The highest concentration of fish that I’ve found was
by Belvidere Park.
Bluegills are still in the shallows in 3-4 ft of water. Look for the
fish in Geneva Bay or in Williams Bay. The best presentation is a
small bobber fished with a leaf worm. Within the next few days, the
bluegills will finish spawning and move out to the deeper waters.
Northern Pike remain active in the shallows. Last week, I had two or
three grab little rock bass as they were being reeled in. The best
depth is 8-10 ft of water with scattered weeds. The best location is
by Linn Pier or by Knollwood. Use chrome/blue or chrome/black jerk
baits or the tried and true white spinner bait.
Good luck and I hope to see you on the water. For guide parties,
