Bigelow and Mashapaug today
Message:
My wife and I took a ride up to Bigelow today, stopped at subway, had a little lunch then I proceeded to fish from the fishing deck at the boat launch at bigelow.. I tried a rapala ssr-5 perch and a top water frog.... nothing... saw some fish swimming around but very quiet. I went to the cove to the left of the boat launch and used the frog through some lily pad, had a swirl, but nothing... drove down to the launch at Mashapaug, lots of cars, not a lot of boats... fished from the cement dock for about a half an hour with the perch rapala again and caught a nice smallmouth from the dock! I was kind of surprised, it put on a nice aerial display, had to be about, well , as my wife put it, a little bigger than my shoe, I wear a size 14..ha ha... hadn't caught a smallmouth in a couple of years. Left there, stopped at the TA for a drink and went the long way home, ended up at eagleville dam for about a half hour, used the rapala and frog again but nothing.. was going to stop at coventry lake but it lookded busy. Was nice just getting out after 6 straight days of work and the last five being closes. Won't be able to go out again til monday but not sure where I'll go... but depending on traffic tomorrow when I get out at 5, I may stop at batterson. Hope all had some good fishing after the storm yesterday.

I was up there on Monday for the holiday. Fished Bigalow pond, caught a few nice bass, I was met by 2 very nice DEEP officers who were out meeting the public and checked to see I had PFDs in my canoe. Told me a 8 pounder was electro fished a few weeks ago and still is in the pond. DEEP must be out in full force because I was also checked out at Gardner lake in SALEM a few days later.

I've been up there a few times with my fiancé over the past week and can't seem to land anything there. Frustrating. I've tried spinners, wacky 5"s, crankbaits, texas rigged. We're doing nothing but shore fishing until i convince her to buy a boat! Any hints / ideas / locations on the lake / setups? any help would be great!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks James
