    Default Got a limit Thursday


    Went out Thursday on Big Cypress Bayou, launched at the Highway 43 bridge and fished toward the lake. Water temp was around 58 degrees most places, not a lot of wind, I'm guessing about 7-10 knots. It was cloudy all day long. I caught over my limit and took a limit home, pic below but they wouldn't cooperate with the photographer and a couple of them flopped in and out of the pic. 4 small ones, 9-1/2"-9-3/4", most were 11" or more, 2 were 13.5".

    The bite was slow, it took all day to get the limit. I threw back 12 or more less than 9-1/2". I lost count of the bluegills I caught and tossed back, I'm guessing 15 or 20. Caught one white bass about 3#, caught 2 goo (drum to most of you), one about 3.5#, one about 2#, and the usual smallish yellow bass. Over all it was a good day, just kind of slow.

    The crappie weren't really stacked up as I was hoping they'd be. I did catch 5 out of one hole near Devil's Elbow, and 3 out of another up the river from there. Other than those it was catch one from a hole and move on. All of them were caught from Devil's Elbow back up to the State Park. They took electric chicken hair jig I tied, blue thunder with chartreuse tail stinger shad by Southern Pro, and black/chartreuse(gliterry tail) solid body tube, all fished on 1/16 oz. flourescent pink heads. Most were caught about 6' down in water 10'-18' deep.

    I had a good time with the God of all creation the whole day while I was there. Here's the pic:

    I only fish on days of the week that end with
    a "Y" ...and then, only if it's raining or not.

    Very nice catch and report! We've been having similar results in Northern Alabama - one here and there.
