Why would anyone go to Jordan Branch. MY .02 most common cove on the lake. But I have fished there several times before. Follow fish and be there at daylight for good fishing. You are passing some quality spots on you trip from the ramp there! Again my .o2 Caught about 100 in that area last night. 36 keepers. Image Image

Bruce you just don't want anyone fishing in your spot Image but seriously I probably wouldn't put in there either you pass some really productive water to get there.

My advice would be stop, wake up Larry and pick up minnows!!!

Ok so jordan branch isnt as good as i thought ,thanks for the info bruce you probably saved me a wasted boat ride.Is the middle fork in general a pretty good area of the lake i have never been out on it? As far as an early start thats out i got a few things to do earlier we can probably get there round 9/10 a.m.

For the second time in less than a month Kingfisher provides some good advice. Ely Fork is good also. Me, I can't fish this weekend, but come Monday is a different story! Good luck! Dry Fork and the Indidans have been producing!
