Craps at Macbride
« on: Dec 30, 2004, 12:19 PM »
Heard and also read on another site that they were getting them at night.   Pretty good sized fish too.  Also heard that early morning was producing.

A good place to start is with the crowd!

There's usually a couple groups under the power lines.

You need to get a map of the lakes new structures and brush piles.I don't care to fish the crowds,most just sit in 1 spot and wait for the fish.I look for brush in or near deep water and also like to fish the rock humps.You can pick up a nice laminated map with a lot of the gps cord and shows a lot of the brush piles too.You can pick one up at Five Season Bait and Tackle in Cedar Rapids for around $4.00.

How is the ice down on McBride?  Just wondering if it is thick enough after the warm weather.
Time to fish.
