Found some good ones this morning

well my fishing buddy bugged out on me and decided branson might be more fun than fishing. Can't say I blame her if i didn't have to work I would have went with her. I fished a oxbow off the white again this morning. Fishing was good and had a limit by 8 a.m. Caught some nice ones mainly in 5 fow with anything chartreuse in color. I tried them umbrella jigs out this morning to see if I could catch bigger fish with bigger jigs and I am still undecided on that but they did catch fish. Good luck to all that fish this weekend, tight lines and big slabs on the end.

THem are some good fish!!! I have been thinking about going over there and trying it out... Good catch bowhunter!!!

Should be able to snag something with that many jigs in the water. All I can say is the umbrellas are my only bait from Nimrod to Peckerwood Lake. Not bad limiting out by 8 am. Hands Clapping

LMBO NIMROD, I thought I would show the spider on the front of my boat. Now I just need to grow 6 more arms so I can feel the THUMP. I make it a challenge for the fish Nimrod, I like to run dummy rods with no jig to keep the fish guessing which one to bite. the snagging is the tricky part especially when I get them Limb brims. Most I had tangles was 5 at one time. Didn't break a rod though thank goodness.

your killin me jw! hey nimrod, i think its a challege when you can catch mutiple fish at one time! but i have noticed while trollin that some people fishin the willows get a little sensitive when it happens.lol

Just curious, what makes the umbrella jigs better than anyone else? What colors work best for ya'll?

I have used them a little. If you compare them to the others they are a little more profile for the fish to look at and there is a theory bigger lure bigger fish. They cost more than the soutern pro tubes. I am not sure they are worth it IMO. I just like trying different jig bodies out. I have some in the bobby garland that I like but I can find most colors in the souther pro. I buy direct and in bulk of 100 so they are cheaper that way. wish I had best colors. that is one advantage to using several poles because I can fish many colors to find out what they want the day I am fishing. My favorites are elect chicken, black/chart, anything chart in color, pinks of any color, and purples.

Thanks bowhunter! curious to hear back from Nimrod as well. I grew up fishing the clear lakes of Arkansas but fish mainly in MS now living in Memphis.

Bowhunter is that Taylor Bay?

hey, jw give me a call need to send you some stuff !!!!!
