Fat Old River Fish

[jig rig]

The bite has slowed with the MS river not falling. Only caught a couple of dozen today. All fish are nice and fat. :p Two fish going 16" Black and chartreuse tube jig 6" to 10" deep on the button wood.

nice catch JR. went to Amerada and Phillips and caught a few like that but with the river on a slight rise it has seemed to slow the bite down some!!

Hey PS,

It's (the ice chest) has been busy the last week with the water falling. Fishing most in the PM after work. These were caught Sat. Morning and the bite had slowed with the river not falling.
I've got of bull bream in the bottom I'll dig out and take a picture of. Caught those on the house boats, in the shade.
Don't use a net. It gives the fish a little more chance. Plus (the net) always flies out the boat.
