Fishing Report July 24 2016 Massachusetts

This has been one of the hottest and driest summers that I can remember in a long time. At the same time, it is having an effect on our lakes and ponds as the water levels are low, water temperatures are high and many areas of weeds, choking out large areas of the lake.

We have a number of lakes that are only accessible with a small boat and this gives some pressure on the fish but with the harder access, cuts back on some of the pressure that the accessible lakes get. Plan was to fish plastics in the weed beds but we could see that there wasn’t much of a shallow water bite.
