We had 3 boats of us down at Anglers Riverside Retreat ( low key, but quick access ) this past week. We started out on Saturday at Dexter and the river, with only 3 keepers ( 9 inches or bigger ). We had driven all night and were very tired, so our day was short and we had to check in. After hearing from Mud ( Thank you friend ) we decided to head on up to Woodruff Sunday morning.. Boy oh Boy, what a difference that made. We limited out on 2 of our 3 boats.. Other boat had a hard time understanding what we were doing ( long lining with floats ). After some late evening training, they understood. Next morning, back to Woodruff and it was still on fire. All 3 boats limited out by 1 PM.. I know we culled close to 20 fish that day, but had a beautiful mess by the end of the day. Long story short, by Thursday, My boat had caught 252. Not a bad week at all.. Our personal best was a 2lb 2oz, a 1lb 15oz and a 1lb 13oz, with several 1lb fish.

No fish kept under 9 inches...

I'm no expert, but I believe they are headed to the shallows to spawn at this time.. Several fish cleaned Wednesday and Thursday had bloody eggs and were full!
I know that there is a tournament down there today ( Saturday and Sunday ), but if I were fishing it, I would be hitting the banks...
