bass fishing while waiting on my jigs.
I've ordered some crappie jigs from skip at Crappie Jigs Home Page and until they get in, I decided to do some bass fishing over at old river lake in scott.
I fished yesterday from 2pm to 5 pm & had pretty good success. I had 9 bites & boated 7. Lost a big fish that was stripping line like crazy. I had several fish in the 2lb range, & it made a nice mess.
I used the nimrod method, white spinnerbait w/ gold willowleaf (war eagle, support the locals) & the fish were real shallow. Water temps were 75-76 degrees & it was a wonderful afternoon to be on the water. very few boats on the water.
Interesting thing is that these bass are really trying to get up & gorge before the winter. One of the fish had 3 crawdads & 1 shad. Hopefully the crappie will be there real soon, when I get my jigs in. Just thought I would share.
