Only had an hour to fish for large mouth and I only fished the East side of the lake. Wx was great for top water w/a wind coming from North to South to disturb the surface and sporadic cloud cover. Landed two fish, one 3 and one 2 pounder. Strike zone was extremely small. Maybe under 12 inches. Used a Zepher Super Spook w/feather tail, blood red hooks and a fat rattle crank bait I bounced off structure. Both in the green colors on12lb Berkley XL. Fun night, wish I had more time. I don't think it would have been as productive in full sunlight.

we went out fishing we were there about 20 muinets and i pulled out a little 3in red and white plastic fish on my secound cast a cought a 12in rainbow trout then about 2 casts later a caught another about same size

Hit tarboo at about 6am there was one person fishing from the shore that wasn't to sure about launching his canoe because of the wind. I started trolling and right off the got a little stocky the smallest one i caught out of this lake again bam another little stocky. Well i trolled down to the end of the lake and on my way back to the boat launch i had to turn my trolling motor to warp speed just going the wind was blowing so bad. But it was fast enough to catch two more stockys and a 16 incher yumm, lunch. I got back in time just as my battery died thank god for that. It was nice to limit out in a hour but the wind was chilly.. ill be back on this lake soon

Hit Tarboo this morning at about 6am. There were only 2 other boats on the lake. I started trolling with a foxtail, no luck, switched to a wedding ring, nothing, switched to rapala lure, nothing. Everyone else on the lake was catching fish left and right so after an hour and a half of not catching anything I over heard another fisherman tell his secret. A tried and true method, but a secret none the less for this lake, so I tried it out and bam, I couldn't keep the fish off. All in all I caught my limit in a hour. Mostly planters, but kept a 17 in lunker and oversized hold over. It was overcast and the wind was blowing a little. It was a satisfying trip and i'm glad I went. I think i'll go tomorrow too. tight lines

While fishing Tarboo with friends and my future bride I was very pleased. using a small corkie and nightcrawler I caught four ten and twelve inchers from shore.Then it was my turn to make a few passes in our little aluminum boat.in two short trips through the middle of tarboo I got a very solid hit it was a 18-inch 2-pound rainbow WOW!!!! will report again soon
