    Default D'Arbonne Lake 2-11-19


    I kept looking at the wind predictions for Monday and almost didn't go, but I had this terrible itch that needed scratching. So, thinking that as big as D'Arbonne is surely I could find somewhere to hide from the wind long enough to drown a few jigs, off I went. Seeing a shower on the radar just west of Farmerville I didn't get in a hurry to get there and arrived around 7:00 after stopping to get me a biscuit and sausage and coffee.

    By the time I got the boat in the water, the channel at the Hwy 33 bridge was already too rough to fish comfortably, but I tried it for awhile anyway since there were fish showing up on the depth finder. Nothing! Not a bite! After assessing the situation, the lay of the lake, and the wind direction; I headed to Tech Lane. Upon arrival I noticed 4 boats in the channel. There was plenty of room between the second and third boat, so I eased pass the second boat about 75 yards and got some jigs in the water.

    The wind was still blowing some but it was manageable. I ended up catching 13 and keeping 10. Caught them in 26-28 feet of water about 20 feet deep. I didn't notice the water temp. I caught them on Tennessee Shad, Cajun cricket, and red/chartreuse. Didn't catch anything big, just good eating size fish. Left the lake around 2:30, went home, cleaned them, and fried some of them up for supper.

    Only one female in the bunch. Maybe the ladies are headed for the flats.
