Nice mess
Got out last Friday afternoon for a couple hours to pre fish an area that I haven’t fished in a few weeks. Had a guide trip a couple days later. With the flood and water levels changes I wanted see where the fish may have moved. I dropped the trolling motor and started seeing a good number of fish. I said to myself let’s just leave those a lone and go see if bigger fish are shallow. I fished 8-10 fow for a little over an hour and had nothing. Yeah that answered that question. Get back out there in 18-20 fow and see how those fish are acting. They bit fast…. Like the month of March pattern. Caught a 11 in no time and let them be. Didn’t want to work them over.
Sunday after early church service I met up with a gentleman that’s trying to set up his boat for rigging and wanted to get some experience on how to do it. The bite was slow to steady. Had more turn away than they did two days before. Cleaning the fish I know why. They were full again and comparing to the ones a couple days before. All their stomach weren’t. I swear they eat like every other day and you better hope they haven’t ate the day you go fish …. Crazy fish… lol
Fish were still where I left them. Roaming all over the place, about half way back up a creek arm in 18 or so fow and about 8-10 feet deep.
Setup was rigging 16 BnM BGJP’s with 1/2oz minnow rigs using Pico Lures/Vanguard Terminal Tackle. They bit plastic yellow/white tube, Red/White feather jigs that Kent Williams tied up for me and minnows.
Back at Saturday or Sunday…. Trying to see what the wind gonna do Saturday to decide if I want to run a trip or not. We’ll see
Good Fishing….

The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass alongLanceHughey LIKED above post
Good job on finding the fish Lance. This week the water temps had gone down four to five degrees, from the prior week, and the pattern had definitely changed for us.
