    Default What are yall seeing


    I fished yesterday at Clark Hill and cleaned 19 water was 50.7at 730 and finished at 53 and change. Now of those 19, 12 were males one being a touch over 14 inches and 7 females with eggs in different stages of development. These fish weren't caught up on the banks but caught on 20ft flats they were what I would call roaming fish. My question is with so many males being caught are the big girls hanging out in deeper water waiting to move in? I've just never seen the ratio turned around like that. What do yall think

    Probably got a juice bar somewhere deep and holding to it. I had two fellows tell me this week that they have been fishing the channel edges and doing fairly good. I haven't even looked there. Spending time tight lining points, flats and humps. If the water temp would drop and stick around 45 to 50* things would change for most of us. Until then, I guess I'll still be chasing what's in 20 to 30 foot of water.

    As you know, the BIG females are usually done way before the main rush to shallows. In another couple weeks when the sun gets high I will be checking shallows and will be keeping an eye open for them every trip afterwards.

    I Agree with Bowman... The bigger, or biggest fish come and go way before most think, just like not all fish spawn at same time …. natures way of protecting the species. We've caught fish already in less than 7' of water, the temp was @ 54-56, but since the rain and colder temps they ain't there now.
    If you don't get hung every-once-n-a-while you ain't jigg'n it right..:D

    The majority of fish l am seeing with these water temperatures are in deeper water river/Creek channels and or on deeper structures.

    It's not the numbers or the size, it's the time spent on the water!
