Fished the NAV in the rain yesterday. The water temperature was 75. The fish were holding near wood in four FOW next to breaklines. Fished many jigs colors, but Monkey Milk produced the best results. Spider rigging was the technique although we were taking a pole out of its respective holder and dipping the bait in the middle of the wood to produce strikes. We fished for an hour and half between 5:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. before the lightning ran us off the water. We caught 14 and kept 8.
Good report Rick.
Slayer thanks for that report. I am 9000 miles away and think about the nav channel often.....big sigh. What depth did it drop off to at the break lines? Pretty great numbers for an hour and a half!
It dropped at five feet into 12 feet of water. This particular break was also located on the inside bend of the channel.
it sucks to just call me,NFA
Your not alone, I can almost use the NFA moniker myself after this weekend!
Same here. Glad to know its not all me
Hey but at least I ended my crappie drought yesterday even if it was only one! Still catching them dang sand bass though.

Spider Rigged Saturday and although it was a slow bite, we managed 12 keepers or at least what I consider a keeper since the NAV has no size limit. The fish we caught were suspended above brush in 12 foot of water. Minnows were the ticket as no line baited with jigs caught fish. WT was 56; water level was above normal and stained. This was also the maiden voyage of my new Motorguide Xi5. What a difference maker!
It's a great motor.
Looking to put in at 3 forks and fish this weekend. Has anyone fished recently? Any tips? I have only fished it once ad that was last year on coody creek. Should I fish that direction toward Hopewell or head north towards ft Gibson? Any help would be great. Thanks and hope yall have been catching slabs!
sorry poohage,havent been keeping up.the best bet would be to go on down from coody to manard bayou.its on down just before the bend on the north side.there is also Boudinot creek just across from Hopewell ive actually had better luck there in the past couple weeks.be careful and go slow in both until you get the channel down as there are lots of stumps just under the surface.shoot me a text next time you go I may be headed out there myself.918-616-2083Quote:

I fished all kinds of lay downs and brush piles in 5-26 fow and saw loads of fish on the locator but when that sun came out they shut off like a switch today. Water was really murky and the shad were thick as always.
I need a new sticker or two to put on my new to me boat. Original ones will be taken off the old boat before its sold.Quote:
