Did anyone find a feeding period around 11:20a.m. and 1:10p.m. last Saturday (9/18)? 4 of the 6 fish caught at the IMTT event held at Lake Shelbyville 9/18 were caught 10 mins within these times.

Full moon and around peak time for that day.

In-Fisherman chart:


I landed a 30" at 11am and a 41" at 2pm two days earlier on 9/16.
Coincidence - maybe, maybe not (I think not ).

Up where I was, it didn't matter. It was 75 degrees and flat calm. I went to a milfoil lake and fished the shady edges, but had no action. The only bite was from 5:30 AM until the sun came up over the trees.
I talked to TR in the parking lot of the motel, and he mentioned that their bite was during the major. He was fishing stained water though. Guess I should have made the move to a darker lake.

I fished the Hodag Muskie Classic. Clouds came over us at about 5:30 PM on Crescent Lake a pretty clear body of water. Two fish, a 35" & a 47", were caught within minutes of each other at about 5:55 PM. Other than that it was a very tough weekend for all 36 fishermen involved in the tournament.
