Thread: the foot Thursday

Hello boys. Coming to the foot tommorow cant wait. Never fished it been watching yalls posts looks like its tough for a beginner. I'm by no means an expert but do have several Sardis Enid trips behind me some very good some well you know. Made a 30 hours marathon trip to Arkabutla last weekend a bust put one keeper in the boat 15 1/2 incher but fished all day and went home tired and depressed. reelfoot is half the drive for me and I have two days Thurs. Fri. any tips would be appreiciated. At least where to start on the lake its a big lake and I'm a little intimidated. Thanks, hope to see some of ya'll on the water

If your trolling just go where the boats are. Best chance of you putting fish in the boat this time around. Water is still cool.

Thanks WTC I'm not much of a troller but I guess I can figure it out if I have to. Prefer jiggin' What is the temp of the water I'm hoping this warm stretch will bring it up

Warm air today is nto going to bring it up much. But in a few days barring another cool spell it will get right. Im afraid your going to find yourself in the same position everyone else traveling has been in. But I hope I am wrong.

Ive heard 52 to 55 in 8ft. on the temp and thats still real cold

Hoping the water in the shallows will warm enough to catch some around the brush. Wont know till I try its my last chance too come down so we'll see what happens. Any suggestions on where to start I should be there by 8:30 a.m should have the boat full by 4:00 lol!

Seriously if you're not going to troll/spider rig..................keep driving south. It aint gonna happen.

I am locked in this cave on top of the hill enduring the suffering of others.

Hope someone is fishing.
