Kayak Trip Report, Moulton New City Lake

I'd planned on fishing Bradford Sinks on Redstone Arsenal today, but it was closed so I returned to Moulton. I managed to tighten the pattern some, Gills were on the edge of grass in 10 to 12 feet of water. The grass was only growing in small areas, so lots of time paddling with the fish finder until I found a likely area then working a 1" slider on a 1/32oz jig head on the bottom. I kept half a limit and returned many, many more including a couple dozen large shellcrackers. Another great day on the water!

Bob D, You need to take a Jon boat into this lake. I released several shellcracker today that were between 10 and 12 inches. You wouldn't believe how hard a pound and a half shellcracker fights!
