I marked stumps with my GPS in northern Limestone Bay today while the water was down. Also did a little fishing. Found stripe anywhere there was current, probable caught and released over a hundred. Also caught many small Bass and Gills. I found Crappie anywhere there was no current and some brush to hold them. Caught a limit plus, all released for another day. The largest was 16 inches White Crappie.
The wind was a pain, but it was a great day to be on the water. I saw one other boat way in the back of Limestone Creek and one bank fisherman. Except for those three anglers, I had the place to myself. Water was very clear and anywhere from low 60’s to upper 60’s. The Crappie all came on a 1/16oz jig head with a Bobby Garland Pink and Pearl body. The Stripe, Bass and Gills were caught on a Chartreuse, 1/32oz roadrunner.

Great job on the release, it will pay off in the future!!

That's a good morning buddy
Wow, you must have really had a time in all that wind yesterday especially since it was coming from the S across the bay right into you. Good trip, thanks for the report.
Sounds like a fun morning for sure
Every day is a holiday and every meal is a picnic.
It has been an adventure for me in limestone. My hydraulics is busted on my outboard and travel around the bay in these shallow conditions have been tough. Hopefully thru a joint effort of a local hydraulic shop and a .com electric motor store I will be back in full business this weekend. Imagine sitting high center on stump in a 18 ft boat spinning like a top in 15 mph winds. I think the GW should start a new catch and keep program. You catch a white bass that is of 12" or greater it is yours. Take it home. This is only tongue in cheek. Kinda
catchNgrease,
I've always caught a few, especially this time of year in the creek mouths, but never like yesterday. It would have been a great day to have a couple kids with snoopy rods in a larger boat. I only had to cast 50 feet, but every single one produced another fish. You could have made some young kids addicted to fishing for live.
