We were just up there filming a show. The fishing was awesome, though they are two weeks behind. The crappies and bass are spawning right now.
The show will start airing this weekend.

Le Homme has always been a system that has frustrated me, at least for big fish. I catch hundreds of fish per day but can never find anything of size whether I am fishing docks or fishing big jigs and cranks out deep all I can catch are tiny bass. I would love to hear how to catch a decent bass out there in the summer.

The state park up there is top notch.
Like it has been stated, lots of fish but not many big ones.
Too many tournaments on the chain!!!

what would tournaments have to do with the size of the fish? sounds like a management issue to mee

I would think it is a management issue as well. People need to start eating some smaller bass or they need to get more big pike in the lake. Every time I am out there I catch very few pike and they are also pretty small.

You are right there are a lot of smaller fish and it sounds crazy but according to Wayne Ek, the dnr wants people to start taking these small largemouth, there are just getting to be way to many.

To me the Bass are a nuisance. It does not take much to catch a bass in Carlos. They are fairly small but I have pulled in some big bass out of Carlos mainly lindy rigging. Seems to the bigger fish were caught after dark. I mostly fish for Carlos for walleye and crappie. Ialready know the bass will be biting  along with the northerns. I love lake Carlos the fishing is penomenal

Being a guide up in the Alex area I can tell you that its a lake for numbers. The big fish you really have to work for them but their there. For the tournaments the chain has roughly 7 tournaments out there a year so the fish get pressured alot and see just about ever lure possible. but people do find the big fish and we see them up in the spring. I also know that Mike schelden of the Dnr is encouraging people to take the small bass out of the lakes. Overall its a great place to fish for numbers though!
