Your are a hero catching in that wind!

Made a trip to the Bell City Drainage Ditch today. I kept 12 sacs and had a bunch of throw backs under 8 inches. I went through 4 dozen shiners and was catching 2 or 3 per shiner once I started running low. I had a blast. For a while I was pulling one in every cast. All fish were caught on Blk/Chartreuse Road Runners and shiners. I caught 3 on the RR then fished in tight with shiners 24in deep. They would not touch a jig. I only caught on one brush pile that was fish-able. I had to beach the boat. That east south east wind was brutal today. It was blowing at 30+mph. Most my brush piles are protected from a south wind but it was blowing so hard it was funneling down the canals. I tried anchoring but got blown around too much. The fish were slow to take the shiner. They would wait 30 secs to a minute before they would take it. All the fish were in a 3ft radius off that pile. The water at the launch looked like yoohoo but the farther south I went the clearer it got. They were pumping water out of the marsh and it cleared it up good.

Sounds like a great trip ! Nice pics too .
Another place I have never fished. Need to get with you soon and make a trip but with my daughter graduating the middle of the month and then on to a pagent the end of the month, looks like it may be June before I get some time for fishing! Thanks for the report and pictures.

I am going with Shallow Runner tomorrow and or Friday. Dwayne what can you tell me about sacalait fishing in Lacassine Pool?
I cleaned the fish this morning and half f them had eggs. It looks like the summer is going to be a good one.
Not much Don. I have only caught 2 out of there this year. The place where I had a buddy get on them last year is closed off this year. Heck I am even having a hard time getting the bream to bite in one of my go to holes over there. That is why I have been chasing bass in the burns. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
