Clinton Saturday
I got to Mascoutin about 7 and there were 7 trailers in the parking lot already. Dewitt bridge had cars lined on both sides. I started down by the bridge and fished the west bank. I spent more time on the trolling motor because the boats were pretty thick by 9. Only caught a few small fish. I decided to move. I went to the ramp and got my lunch that I forgot and overheard guys talking about catching fat fish. I knew exactly where to go and when I found them they were bunched up. Only one color of jig was hot. I ended up with 11 and 8 of those were over 10 and 1 was 12. I threw back what I thought were females, but after cleaning the fish every one was
full of shad. I counted 4 fresh shad in one of the belly's, and still feeding. I talked to some good guys from Decatur at the ramp and they said they were out deep and didn't do very good.
My brother has my camera so the phone pic isn't very good. If anyone wants more detailed info just pm me!
