<br /> Been fishing at the Chick mostly over the past week because the fishing at Parksville is close to its worst. <br /> Chick:<br /> Getting on the lake just at safe light and going for some shad, we have been successfull on catching shad real early and catching about everything on them until they run out. After they run out you most likely wont catch anymore, so we go ahead and tie on artificial baits and keep on fishing. Over the past week we have been catching anywhere between 25-40 bass each morning, as well as a few more different species, such as small cats, drum, crappie, and white bass. Not sure of the weight on our biggest drum as the scales said 8.8lbs. Our biggest bass were a 4lb LM, 2.5lb SM, and a 2.5lb spaat. Also have been catching white bass up to 2lbs a piece, and a chunk of a crappie that went 15&amp;quot;. Most fish coming off some drops and some off deep bluff walls. <br /> Parksville:<br /> Fished it the other morning and actually got SKUNKED emoBang... im pretty sure the evening bite is better than the morning right now just like last year... but the past couple years these couple weeks in June have always been bad for me but should pick up again around mid-late June hopefully.<br /> I&#39;ll try to post pics later tonight
