    Default Bald Knob Shell Cracker


    Had a great afternoon at Bald Knob Lake. Boated around 50 shell cracker along with a few bluegill. Used the Abu Garcia 62UL Diplomat Extreme…..Daiwa Ballistic FW 1000 reel spooled with VARIVAS ES2 Lemoni Ester line in 2.3# test. Jig head was Daiwa SS 1.5 gram with #8 hook. The lure of course was a Trout Magnet in either a Sow Bug or Bison color. This setup gives me more fun than the law allowsBald Knob Shell Cracker. Fished in comfort out of my Alweld Outlaw Invader from Mighty White Marine. This boat has some serious fishing mojo! Life is good!

    Good looking fish. Is this the boat you were talking about having converted to stick steer?

    Those fish look almost as good as the boat. Those numbers make for a good day. Glad you got out and found a few.
