Highland park fish camp is reporting good catches from Woodruff and the run. Probably the best bite right now.

I'm heading down for a couple of weeks. I stay in Astor and fish the river south to Lake Dexter and Woodruff. Anyone have any reports from that area? thanks JC

Great, Woodruff is one of my favorite places. I will hit it Thursday and see what I can do. I will post results as I get them. JC
Can't wait to see your report, that's one of my favorite areas of the river
The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"
Today was my 3rd day on the water. It took me a while to figure out what they wanted. The first day I pulled 15 nice fish 12" and over, the second day I got 20 the same size with a lot of fish in the 8 - 10" range. Anything under 12" goes back in the water to get bigger. Today I started at 7 am and it was slow so I started up my program of changing up colors and speeds. I only troll and usually use 1/16 oz jig heads of red or chartreuse. The grubs didn't seem to be producing well so I put on a tube (red head with white tail) They seemed to like that so I took it one step further, I filled the tubes with Berkley's crappy bites and the bite was on. I pulled 60+ fish, 20 of them under 12" and I kept 10 fish to have a fish fry. They are out there it just takes some time to figure them out. Tomorrow,,,, who know, they might only bite on a treble hook with a turkey leg on it. JC
Great report, thanks for sharin the info - good luck tomorrow !!![]()

I tried all the dark colors I had when it was overcast and could not get them to go. That is when I got creative. JC
