I'll be fishing it 4-13 thru 17 and would love to have any info you garner on your trip

The last report I had was that the grass had died off

if that's the case, I will have to change the way I normally fish it

Unless you're posting about a year in advance, think another cup of coffee is in order Wevans.

I'm surprised Tin Can hasn't come along and posted a response. Everyone knows how much he LOVES that lake.

There are no fish in Seminole, try another lake.

That's exactly why Tin Can hasn't posted. It would be fine with me if we never fished it again.

A little old, but good info

In years past, I have had good luck with the shad colored X-Rap doing a rip and stop action at the edge of the grass or a channel and a rattlin rogue "floater/diver" in the 2 to 3 foot range. Good luck and tight lines

Not only are there not any fish in Lake Seminole, but there are no stumps either. You can run WOT.

Great weekend for fishing. Fish early top water and when it gets hot find a sand bar in deeper water. There is a great grass bed when you leave Wingates just to the right out of the channel for early fishing. I used a buzz bait with a white spinner. (had to paint it) A total of 33 pounds won the tourn. Fished Sat. 5 hours and Sun 5 hours. Large worm carolina rigged in deep water. Find a colo you like. I also used a crome and black zara when it got bright.

A good place this time of year is around the islands at the mouth of the Hootch. Also, out in front of big Jim's. Whatever you do, don't throw a watermelon seed lizard.
