You''ll get lot's of perch chew and screws in tipups there. If you saw suspended fish then they were crappie or white perch and if you can get them to bite it's a blast. I usually have success using a hali jig tipped with a moussie there.

Good luck

We have been having the same problem at various lakes this year. Fustrating isnt it??? Glad to hear we are'nt the only ones. Sometimes it seems like I would be better off not having the vex at all. Jig everything at them, but like you said, you can watch them come up...look at it, and go right back down.

I've never fished Frenches Cove but when I've fished Zoar it always seems the fish turn on when the water is rising whether it is after they stop generating power or a big downpoar.
