Can anyone give me a few good spots or pointers on Hardy? I am heading up there on Saturday and I have little experience on this body of water. I would like to chase some smallies! Thank you all!!
Flats, points and the weed edges associated with them should get you some fish.
I appreciate the feedback!
Don't be afraid to spend some time looking shallow too... roamers are usually big fish!!
Will do!! I went up to Traverse a few weeks ago and fished the east bay and smoked the smallies! We caught about 50-60 fish with several in the 3-5lb range. We have a pontoon on Hardy, so I rarely get the chance to bring the bass boat out on Hardy, so I lack the knowledge of that lake.
Thank you for helping out!
Hardy is great in the fall, I grew up spending all my weekends there in the fall. Try crankbaits and lipless cranks up on the big flats in 12 - 14 foot of water down past BigBend park if thats not working go up to Rogers bridge and drag jigs. If all that fails the sure thing just to catch a couple of fish is jerkbaits around the 2 islands up from Bigbend. Good luck and let us know what you catch I think Ill be headed up that way next weekend.
Thanks for all the info! I will be sure to send a report!
