    Default Shelby 3-25


    Had Josh and Chad out with me today and we had a pretty good day! We fished 2-10 foot of water and caught em in the 2ft range, 5-7ft range and 10ft range, it didn't really seem to matter. I think you have to find the fish and then it seems to not be to hard. Lots of people are catching them. We caught fish both corking and verticle jigging and again had some real quality fish. Josh and Chad seemed to have better luck with an white 1/4 oz head with a bobby garland tube in silver sparkle and chart. While I was using an 8th oz chart. head with a chart/red speckle tube. We finished with our 30 overs and 9 really nice unders and tossed back probably close to another 10 or so more over ten inches.

    Good job ...... I went out today and caught them but it seemed like I fished 6-8 spots before I found any good numbers. Also a ton of boats out. I wonder how everyone else did because I was ready to give up before I found a nice honey hole. At one point I could see 20you boats around me.
