Back on Neely Henry

[RogerA]

Went back to try Neely Henry again yesterday. I guess the weather changes have them slowed down. I fished from 6:30-1:30 and caught 12 crappie. I really had to work hard for those fish. I would go for long periods without a bite. I found water temps down to 81-82. A thunderstorm came up and ran me off the water. I think in a couple of weeks the water will cool off some more and the fish will start to bite better.

Good report. I went after the storm and did pretty good. Don't know if the rain got them going or what but we caught around 60 all released but lots of little ones probably 35 or so keepers. all on docks.

Lowe175, were you throwing those good looking jigs on your Avatar? How deep were the docks you were shooting?

[lowe175]

We caught most in 12ft too 20ft of water. Yes we were using some of my Marabou jigs (green and white)( pink and char.) I agree with RogerA in a week or so it will be on fire. I see you are retired army thanks for your service Bob D.

lowe175 thanks for the shout back. I wish I could find some docks that deep on the Big G. Love to shoot docks just don't have a large number of them available that fit that bill. What weight were the jigs you were throwing? My time in the Army was phenominal! I still serve now in the capacity of Dept of Army Civilian here at Redstone Arsenal.

1/16 oz. They should be on the dock on the big G too.
