Black River report 12/6
Started the day with three dinks in a row, but my luck quickly changed. Kept 17 from 10 - 13 inches and threw back six or seven under 10 inches. River was still real high, but they bit, and they bit pretty high in the water column for the river being so high. Caught some tightlining, some longlining, most on minnows and a few on 1 inch chartreuse Gulp minnows. These fish are extremely thick, even the 10 inchers. Didn't see another soul all day. It was perfect.

Its different than lakes fo sho! We can't target forage, there is no forage. These fish aren't full of shad when you clean them, they're full of whatever they can find to eat. Bugs, crayfish, anything. And it's tough enough when the river's not out the banks, usually near impossible when it's flooded. But it's been high so long I figured why not try. And I left em biting for you, my back quit before the fish. Most of those came from Long Lake, a few from Kelley Cove. And in all that water they were only about four feet deep. Think I'll have to start titling my reports 'Jordan Lake' if anyone's ever gonna look at em, lol.
Forgot to mention in the report, I had one fish take two baits while longlining. Thought it must have just been tangled, but she had two hooks in her mouth.
