It is about that time again. Going up on April 25 for a few days. Anyone have an update?

Oh no the smallmouth sandwich maker. The last report I got was do not eat any bass from Wilson lake due to a rare disease just found last week in the smallmouth and largemouth bass. From what I hear it gets in your scrotum and eats it from the inside out and all that is left after the disease looks like a vagina.

Okay, anyone else have any info on the fishing? LOL

I don't have any Wilson info, but if they're doing the same thing there that they are on Pickwick then this might be relevant info...I think the Pickwick smallies are starting to bed, so they'll probably still be bedding or coming off bed during that time.

Hey Barry if they are on bed we can still catch stripers.

Have fun with the vultures, I hear they like trucks with tags that begin with 3 or 4. I tried to help you last year until I found out you were making sandwiches with smallmouth.

You must have not ever had a smallmouth sandwich

I haven't but it sounds delicious

I forgot about all those damn buzzards. I guess I need to bring a tarp or a dead deer to throw in the back of someone else's truck.

Dad whacked 'em last week below Wilson Dam. Had some 5-plus brownies and greenheads.

Would it be out of reason to petition the federal government and dcnr to let someone go to the parking lot right there at the dam one morning and kill about 6 or 700 of those damn buzzards? I know they are protected and all but the population is severely out of whack up there.

watched em ruin 4 or 5 trucks last year. why they chose THOSE trucks is beyond me? But all 6-700 were on just those trucks??

Y'all talking about cormorants?

South Carolina DNR did a cormorant hunt recently. Killed some 11,000-plus of 'em.

Wish we could do that here.

I'd be the first in line for a permit. Them stinkin ass things have killed more trees than a logging company

no we are talking about buzzards that sit on your truck the whole time you are fishing and chit all over it and scratch your paint with their claws and fight and have sex and do whatever else buzzards do. there will seriously be 20 buzzards sitting on one truck.

and pulling the seals outta your windshields and pulling the rubber off your windshield wipers.

We fished Wheeler last week for a high school tourney. Only caught one smally. Only took 16 and change to win. There was one just shy of 5 weighed in that was caught on the upper end where we was. If this helps........................

Interesting. Never have heard of that many vultures ganged up like that at the dam.

One of my friends son and another kid got 3rd they had 15.80 I think

I will likely be up there, but the fishing below the dam has slowed. Ive been on good fish but a lil downriver. I may be there on the 26th, what will kind of boat will yall be fishing out of in case I come to the dam???
