Looking to get into some fish, would it be to early to hit Pymie? Looking for crappie and eyes. Don't really want to waste the gas if its early and not looking to snag 20 eyes and keep my limit just want to enjoy the day.

Whats the chain by the causeway?

It's a chain across the cement bathtub that is "supposed" to keep the anglers from snagging the eyes that all try to go upstream to spawn and congregate in said bathtub. It doesn't stop many of them.....

Im considering renting a boat this weekend and trying for crappies and/or eyes. Ive fished pymy some from kayak and shore in late April and early May and have had moderate success in the past.
 
I feel that that water is still on the cool side right now ( just a guess), and the southern end of the lake's deeper humps would be my best bet. As opposed to trying Tuttle and the northern stumps...
 
Any comments or advice?
I would not have electronics on the boat, but im pretty good with a smartphone and some mapping apps i have...

Hit the causeway....the rocks warm up thus warming near by water. They are not shallow yet.

Anybody know if there is any work going on down by the Weir in Jamestown ?  Someone told me there was some repair work going on by the dam area.

Anyone fish today. I thought about heading out today and I forgot to charge my batteries. They are on charge now and if it doesn't rain tomorrow I may make the trip up.

shhhh they are starting to bite ;)

Fished yesterday as well, marked a bunch of eyes but could not get one. Did well on crappie. Tightlines

Well I chickened out again. The wind was strong down here so I figured it would be really bad on the lake. I only have a 16 footer and it doesn't take big waves very well. Good luck to all who fish today and be careful. Pymie can get dangerous.

Water temp anyone??????????????????
