Our First GA Bream Thread - A fishing report by Danbo

[Danbo]

Four of us went down to the Ohoopee River near Reidsville yesterday. wE DID NOT KEEPS BUT 22 and some were small but the river was a site to behold. The Ohoopee is maybe the 2nd purtiest river in Georgia. The Satilla would be number 1 and the Ogeechee number 3. My boat used almost 200 crickets attached to our SPin Dandy's and tossed back many real little fellers. We did catch a few nice red breast and two fine war mouth bream. The water temp was still too cool and it was very low.

A very good day

That's some pretty water!

I'll share my method if anyone cares to try it. I put this grub on a 1/32 jig head and use a slip bobber set acording to depth. When I cast into an area they hit it on the way down. If they don't hit it I slowly pull the bobber a foot or two and let it fall again. This jig actually out fishes crickets for me when I'm bream fishing and they work for specks also. I wouldn't know where to get them. I originally bought them at Gander Mountain, but they don't carry them anymore so I'll be looking in every bait shop I go in. They are a pearl color with black specks. Hope you don't mind me poaching on your site. We don't have a bream board yet.

welcom to our new brim forum speckanator . you should be able to git some of the curley tail lure makers to make you some in that color . if the ocmulge gits enough water in it this summer i will post some picks but it is so lou you can wade across in most any plce.

I have some of those same twister tails. I got them at bass pro in Duluth last time I was there. Funny I never saw them there before. I really liked the look of them so I picked up a few packs and they worked great on crappie at Reelfoot lake in tenn. can't wait to see how they do for bream. Here in Ga. I have also had good luck using a pearl 1/32 jig head with red worms or wax worms. Bream seem to love them.

my favorite type of lures are the 1 inch curly tails! I get them on-line from these folks:

LISTING OF ALL SOFT PLASTIC BAIT

I like to fish them for everything- bass and crappie will bite them with a faster retrieve and the gills will too, but fishing them like you do works well, also.
