Give me some advanced warning and I'll be more than happy to take you out on the channel.

Has anybody heard anything about billy creek lately? Or know how the fishing is in the oxbows?

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!
