In Calif I used to watch aa old man slingshot small rocks at the cormorants to drive them away. He never hit any, just water. Is that even legal? Didn't seem to work anyway.

probably not legal but something does need to be done. they are getting more fish than we are. im pretty sure they dont stock the lake for them to eat... or maybe i have it backwards lol

I agree, the comorant need to go. They only stocked Boren with 1,000 and with the amount of pressure that lake gets I'm sure it will be fished out quick.
Good job tnj2222. Glad to hear the bite is still going on. Good report.

Fished this morning and ran into tnj8222 again. Slowwww fishing for me, but managed to get 4 and lose a few others. Cormorants all over the place.

It gets fairly tough to limit at Boren at 2+ weeks after every planting, even without the 2-rodders and cormorants. The fish get thinned out and start spreading out in the lake. It's getting closer to that time period.

Not a big deal though... might be time to seek out some panfishing spots at other lakes.

i got a limit after you left. they were biting at the launch again. no hold overs this time though. nice seeing you out there again. Shad_Eating_Grin. they are spreading out pretty good but they will continue to be shallow until the lake turns over, and the thermocline returns.
