    Default mon-wed. from the bank


    Lots of fish in the 2-9 foot range. 1/8 oz. jig with red/chart. or electric chicken,fished below a cork. When the sun was out the fishing was a little better and the fish were closer to the bank. All were tight to cover with the largest a little over 11 but a ton of 9 3/4 inch fish for those whol want to keep some unders. Fish seemed to be on specific cover and bit well, but not all the cover had fish on them. Had to try lots of spots before the fish were located. Go get em.

    We fished weds. in the wind all day. Blow Blow Blow..We kept 18 overs with a handful of really nice ones. Most were tight lined 8-9 foot deep on either brush or standing timber on the north end. All on jigs with orange / chart. mid-south tubes doing the most damage. water temps were 49 just about everywhere we went. Most all wanted it sitting still which wasn't real easy in that wind. It was great to be on the water

    Good to be back.

    Just feel guilty as I truly hadn't even been around much anywhere except FaceBook...

    Glad to see the veterans and newbies!

    Now back to Jerry!

    The fish were still biting this morning til the lightning chased me home. Had 22 with about 6 or 7 over, but didn't keep any. They were still in the same spots--guess they didn't know it was raining.
