Thread: Anyone gonna fish wateree 4/9

Just wondering if anyone is gonna give Wateree a try tommorow,me and crappie snapper are gonna give it try again,fish may not cooperate but have to go when we can,looks like the wind is gone lay down a little hopefully,maybe the bite will pick back up from the cold front coming thru,we will launch from wateree creek around daylight and try some trolling for stripers as well as bottom fishing and drifting,and prolly casting too,something got hit something,if not it still beats work,anyone else got any reports or techniques that has worked for them recently,will post a report tommorow pm on our results hopefully with pics too

Fished wateree today,ended up with 8 cats,5 blues and 3 channels,biggest was 19,had one 9,a couple around 5 and a few smaller,caught all on cut or live shad,didnt do ant good on the stripers,had a few hits trolling live bait,but they didnt get it all,not a bad day,a little windy,heres a couple pics,crappie snapper with the 19lb and me with the 9lb,water was pretty clear and 61 to 63 degrees,hopefully will pick up before weekend

Good catch,Looks like you were a little cold.

i remember about 25 years ago we was having a deer drive on that island behind you. we had two shooters and about a half dozen drivers. one of the shooters left his stand and went to the upper end, about 50 yards from his stand hoping to get a shot as the deer hit the water. a half dozen deer got up and went up the middle of the island, right past the first shooter. he held his fire till the deer got by then openend up with a shotgun. what he dint know was the other shooter had left his stand and was now directly in the line of fire. the understanding was the shooters would let the deer go by, then shoot away from the drivers, which is what the shooter done. he got two deer and the other shooter, who took a buckshot through the thigh missing bone and arteries. it was a clean pass through.

yea,it was a little chilly at times with the wind howling,when the sun came out it wasnt near as bad,been in worse fishing,hopefully spring temps will get here soon

Hope your gonna be at the rodeo 22nd? They will be a biggin caught that day,long as the weather holds.

we will be there,yea i would like to see one 50 to 60 pounds or bigger weighed in,that would be pretty neat,i just hope it comes from my boat:D

Nice catch slab hunter!

thanks fishnline
