    With some much rainfall here in middle Georgia, the big lakes have been extremely stained with high water or current. I bought a new to me color Bobby Garland minnow Blue Ice and took it to a local watershed to try. Man was it on when you cast jig and put it in the rod holder and before you could put out another rod, it was bent over with a fish. With four rods out pulling jigs .7-.9mph from 2.5-5’ deep trolling over structure and secondary points outside spawning grounds. Water temps were 54 degrees with gusty winds and overcast. I keep a single man limit of 30 culled from 54 in the boat. What a fun and memorable day!

    That is a color that will always be in my box. I find it works better in less stained water. Right now in muddy water, Lights Out and Indigo Sky colors are working better for me. I fish Lanier mostly. What lake is that?

    KK, that is an excellent report. I like posts like this in which the angler is not so secretive about their technique and results. Drumking up here in TN always gives reports like yours'. He may not catch fish every time, but he is honestly trying to help others, just as you did with this report. I'm glad you had a great day, and thanks for sharing.
