This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

hit lake around 7:15 fished to 2:15. Tried a couple spots most fish came in 4-8 fow around 9 mile area. Morning bite was slow but it came in spurts. Defiantly schooling fish as at a couple of times I went 3 for 3. Slow was real good in the morning. Tried my fast reaction baits but nothing. Slow rolling lippless baits worked but a split shot rig with a 4" senko worked very well. Caught most of the big ones on a erie goby colored tube with a 5/8 oz big dude head. Just let it sit. Fish were bitting light almost like a walleye. Afternoon was much better. Xcalibur xr50 in pearl melon was the best. I tried a lot of other colors but this produced the most. I noticed one boat was getting a lot on jerkbaits worked fast but I couldn't get bit with one. Tried hard and soft. I also stayed away from the pack as most of those fish were small. Caught a lot of 16-18 fish. Total for the day was 45 smallies on largie. 
Got one!
