Thread: Raining fish

Well my buddy been working Long hours and wanted to go today fishing. I couldn't tell him no so we put on both sets of my rain gear and of we went. We fished an oxbow off the river and tore em up. Had our limits in couple hours fishing 7-12 fow 8 foot deep most times. They liked it fast too . The rain didn't bother them a bit. My boat got a good rinse and had I bilge several times to keep water out of the floor lol. Colors today was a prototype arkie big plastic which I lost. Wouldn't ya know it I only had one. Many fish fell to southern pro curly tails parrot, white/chart, red/chart. We worked 3 areas and when the fish would slow down we would go to the next area. They were stacked like cord wood in the places we fished. Size of jig head was 1/16 oz pink in color. Hey also found some of RCC's fish too :-). It takes skill RCC to catch em this small. Kept only a limit and caught more than we could keep track of today. Was one of the best days we had fishing in a long time together.

If you haven't fished in the rain, put on some good rain gear and give it a try as you will probably have the water to yourself :-).

Yea Mitch. I only had the one lol. These tubes are 2.5 inches long and like nimrod says use a bigger bait for bigger fish lol. Doesn't work all the time as you can see in the pix
