I had everything ready to fish Monday morning and just sat and watched weather channel waiting on rain to move out of n-west Ga. I left home at 11:00 a.m. and launched boat at 12:00. Water was down 4 ft. and water temp was 50.9 degrees. It has finally hit the magic 50 Degrees. Moved out to the creek channel till I reached 7 ft. plus water. Put out my 4 rods out front with minnows. Caught several L-mouth and Spotted bass in channel on my way to one of favorite holes. Fish were holding close to structure in 7.9 water right on the ledge of the creek run. Picked up 5 Keeper Crappie with largest 15". I began catching Stripers-L-mout-Spots-W-Bass consistently down the creek S-Rigging. Caught several more small Crappie. My largest Striper was approx. 6 lbs. I had a blast. Loaded up at 5:00 p.m. Thank you Lord for one more enjoyable day on the water. I believe the bite is on. Good Fishing All. Bottombumper
