Thread: sardis

wondering if the walls at sardis spillway producing any fish yet are is the water level to unstable

We are going mon afternoon. I will let you know mon night

I DIDNT KNOW UNTIL THIS MORN THAT YOU HAD SENT ME A MESSAGE. MY COMPUTER HAS BEEN REAL SLOW EVER SINCE I SWITCHED OVER TO PEOPLE PC. ANYWAY I WENT LAST FRIDAY AND CAUGHT 13 REAL GOOD ONES AND MISSED PROABLY 5 IF NOT MORE GOOD ONES . I NORMALLY GET DOWN THERE AROUND 5:30 OR 6 AM AND MAKE A DAY OF IT. ANYWAY THE WATER IS DOWN AS EXPECTED SINCE I WAS THERE THE WEEK BEFORE BUT THE GOOD THING IS ITS HAD A FEW DAYS TO STABLIZE. ONE THING TO ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND WHEN THE WATER IS CUT BACK MOVE UP INTO THE SPILLWAY MORE. LAST FRIDAY I WAS FISHING RIGHT AT THE SIGN ON THE SARDIS SIDE CASTING AS FAR OUT INTO THE MIDDLE AS POSSIABLE. I PRETTY MUCH LET MY CORK RIDE THE WAVES GIVING MY JIGS ALL THE ACTION THEY NEEDED. ANYWHERE FROM THE SIGN DOWN TO THE SECOND SET OF STEPS WAS A GOOD PLACE TO FISH. AS FAR AS BAIT I ALWAYS USE TWO 1/16TH JIGS UNDER A FLOAT EXPERIMENT WITH PROVEN FISH CATCHING COLORS TUBES THAT I HAVE CAUGHT FISH ON BEFORE THIS TIME OF YEAR AT SARDIS. i CAUGHT MOST OF MINE ON RED/WHITE TUBE ON PLAIN JIG HEAD ON BOTTOM AND SOLID PINK TUBE ON PLAIN JIG HEAD ON TOP SPACED ABOUT A FOOT APART. ITS JUST WHAT EVER THE FISH SEEM TO HIT! ONE THING I HAVE LEARNED DONT BE AFRAID TO EXPERIMENT BY SWITCHING COLOR COMBINATIONS. I ALWAYS TIP MY JIGS WITH BERKLEY 'NIBBLES' SCENT BAIT. I WAS HOOKED ON THESE THINGS A FEW YEARS BACK AND NOW I USE THEM 95% OF THE TIME. ALSO DUE TO THE TEMPS FLUX THE FISH ARE HOLDING DEEP RIGHT NOW. I WAS FISH NEARLY 12FT DEEP FRIDAY OUT IN THE MIDDLE. IN ORDER TO DUE THIS YOU HAVE TO FISH THE DEEP HOLES BUT ALSO KEEP IN MIND WHERE THE EDDIES ARE ALSO TO CATCH FISH. IF ALL OF THIS IS NOT ENOUGH TO WORRY ABOUT DONT FORGET YOUR GLOVES AND LONG HANDLES HA!!HA!!!! SORRY SO LONG HOPE YOU CATCH A BUCKET FULL!!!

SEE YA!! ON THE LAKE
