Thread: Jugging Arkabutla

Mississippi, neighbor has been a couple of times and his luck has been about like yours. So no good info on where to go.

Figure this time of the year you should be able to catch em along the levy, they spawning and this be setting in the rocks.

Rees you keep forgetting this ain't Nader. Butla fish don't do anything on schedule with anyplace else. Most have been caught up creeks in flooded fields but they seemed to have turned off.

I agree. If jugging I would put about 2 ft out and bait with small piece of a hot dog, throw them up and down the levee about 10 ft off the rocks. Should get interesting from there

Lot of fish caught around here in the rocks where they bed and you are rite all of the big 4 have their own ways.

was gonna try against the levee today but the strong south wind didnt allow. saw two fellas in the the upper end close to hwy 51 the other day said they had been all over and fishing since 7 that morning with no fish. havent been able to find any shad either. last year i could throw a net about twice up on the lake and get enough shad to fish all day. high water got everything scattered. i have fished from the dam all the way to 51 for two days. might have to troll some cranks next week at sardis. thanks for the info cray.

My old man buddie had to quiet fishin for them caused he ran out of room in his freezer but he is a diffrent breed when it comes to catching catfish

Did you guys forget that Handi caught them all last year?
