We arrived at lake(daylight) about 30 minutes before a big thunder storm. Fish were biting pretty good but the lighten was too much. After the storm passed we went back out to a spot in 50' & started over. Got some bites but nothing like just before the rain. We drifted & fished cut shad on the bottom in several locations. Bites were slow all day.
Total for trip was 38 blues. Most were about 2 to 3 lbs, with one at 23 lbs.
We had to wait out the storm this morning at Murray but it cleared out by 7:30 and we had good weather. Glad you caught a few and the 23# had to be fun. 38 fish is a pretty good day in my book.
That doesn't sound like a very slow day to me. Congrats on whacking a fine mess of kitties
Monticello will be a great lake to stock Tilapia since it stays warm all year.
Good day on the lake. Nice catch and thanks for the report.
You know that is a good point. We stocked them in our Wildlife pond and they survived several winters. The pond had several underground springs which I think helped moderate the temp. They would probably congregate near the station in cold weather.Quote:
