    Default Been awhile


    Have not done the night bite for awhile but got out Sunday. Trolled and slipped corked before dark and only caught two. Fished two spots after dark and got a limit. On the second spot I saw some fish fairly shallow toward the surface. They would not take a minnow so I tried a jig and had good luck. Seems they wanted the bait moving...if they got a chance to stare at it they'd swim off. There are zillions of bait fish back in the creeks and some schools of fish around them but the only thing I can catch trolling is drum. I don't fish January and February very much so I can't speak for the fishing then, but October is by far the most confusing month for me.

    Nice report. I find the spring and all of the rains and water temp fluctuating the most confusing time for me. I'd rather fish the heat of the summer and fall.
