Horeshoe or Midway?

[HolyCrappieola]

Anybody fished either one here lately? Any luck? With Duck season over, I'm ready to get after them.

I think the river has been in Midway. 3-4 weeks ago I got some good reports. I tried to go and the wind blew me off. I would try Horseshoe

Been keepin an eye on the Shoe the last week or so, but nobody I've talked to has caught many. I've been at the ramps 3-4 times and haven't seen a good mess yet. Midway should be great cause the river is on the fall. They usually take off on a slow fall, and the river should be outta there by Friday.

Hey Shane - What BRM said. They are 2 oxbows off the MS river. Old Town is cut off of the river and has some of the biggest bald cypress you have ever seen. A lot of people yoyo there but I like to single pole. Horseshoe has 100 docks and pads to fish.
In the heat of the summer you can get under the docks with a black and chartruce jig and wear them out.It is also a great trolling lake.I have even caught them pulling crankbaits. For us in NE ark and those in Memphis they are used a lot. One thing about Horseshoe in the summer, the ticks and fleas will run you off

If I remember correctly ol muddy gets in Midway at 23' on the Memphis gauge. Is this correct? It's been about 10 years since I"ve been. Grandad took me all the time back in the day though...even got me out of school to spend days at a time down there. Ol man Fowler and him were good buddies.

Yep, 23 is what I've been told. They were doing really well there when the wind was right, and before the river got in a week or so ago. Should be hot by the weekend.
