PICO Crankbaits catch anything!
Launched at 6:30 am this morning as 30 bass boats from a club was taking off, so decided to keep everything from 10" up and no sooner than I got the lines in the water, I was catching crappie as it was a hot morning of fishing. Water temp was 72, wind was blowing 14 mph right off the bat, and by 10 am was done with a limit of 10" to 14" in crappie, kept one yellow perch of 11", threw back 3 bass to 18", several small gills, and about a 25-30 lb flathead cat that took me 10 minutes to land on one of my 12" Southern Pro rods on 10 lb test Power Pro Braid and I will say this, I tried to break the rod as it was completely doubled over trying to bring that fish out of 14' of water. Awesome rod that will take the punishment. After getting the crankbait out of the cat's mouth, one of the hooks was all but straightened out so was lucky to land and released it also. Fished moved on me from yesterday and was about 150 yds down the creek line in deeper water and took about 45 minutes to find them..most of the biggies came right out of the creek channel that was 16-18' deep as I criss crossed it over and over working the fish that were suspended in 12 ft or deep. Couple of other places I caught fish was trolling the crankbaits 10-14' deep out from the north bank between a couple of points where the creek channel comes super close. Fish are still deep with the small ones coming up it seems.Hot colors today were Mud Bug, Zombie, Pink, and also Green Machine. www.picolures.com for the colors. Fishing is hot right now so hammer away when you can.
