Lake Murray Report Memorial Day
I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day and found a little time to get on the water. We had afternoon plans, but I was able to hit the lake until noon. With the bass bug out of my system, I set sail with the jig pole in hand.
I got started about 8:00 AM and had my mind set on fishing docks. After several stops on some of the better docks I only had 1 fish to show for my efforts and I had killed several hours. I switched tactics and went in search of blow downs. The blow downs I found were holding a lot of fish but they were little. I managed to catch a couple 9-10" fish that I kept, but it wasn't the size I was after so after several stops I switched tactics again...Brush and woody cover in deeper water.
Finally, I found a few decent fish. Nothing to write home about, but I did have a few pound fish which looked like monsters compared to what I had been catching. I called it quits at about 12:30 with a limit of 20 in my box. It was an enjoyable morning and I didn't get pestered by the water lice until the last hour.
Water temp was 83 and fish were caught in 2-20 FOW at varied depths with the jig pole. Yellow and black/chart. were the best colors. Total fish caught was somewhere around 35-40 I'd imagine. Lots of dinks for the future. I'm not sure I'll make it back out this weekend, but I'm sure going to try!
And they ate good Monday night!!!!

Glad you was able to put together a plan that produced some good fish. Those fresh fried fish sure are hard to beat and that is what keeps me going back for more. Congrats on your day and catch.

Looks like a nice morning of crappie snatching. Congrats on the limit catch of good eating size specks.

Derek, we ran into the same thing Friday with the small fish in the shallow brush (6 to 10 ft) I tried it today and did no good on the river in the trees that we fished earlier. I was surprised to find a few nice fish in Beaver Dam Creek . I was in about 8 FOW casting to docks.

There's some good ones in there Ray. I wanted to go down there, but never made it any further down than the rock wall.
