I'll be fishing on May 8th around the Holmes Bend marina... Anyone have thoughts on technique or lure choice? never fished here before...

I'd planned on casting in 6-10' of water with bucktails & cranks & jerks.

Thanks for any info guys.

I haven't been 2 Green yet this year, I've been hitting the Cave mostly because its closer 4 me. However, if I had my choice, I would fish only Green. I love that place man! There having a trinity tourney down there this weekend, hopefully we can get a report. Last year I tore the Musky up on the mainlake flat areas by shortlining. No monsters but alot of action. You may be able 2 pop a fish early or late in the back of a cove. I would fish the mainlake stuff though especially if the water temps get up into the 70s by then. I got a really good friend that has a cabin down at Holmes bend. I will try and get ahold of him 2 see how he's doing this year down there. He stuck a 48 incher and a 45 on back 2 back casts last year in the mouth of Butler. You may want to look into that one very early morning. LOL

You need to bring something other than rattletraps. That bite will be long past.
