Just came in from 9 hrs. of fishing so this will be short. Only kept one fatboy today threw back three little guys back. No surface pops in the evening and the guy next to me had 6 live minnows down and didn't see him pull up any. I'll try tomorrow at 7 a.m. any advice will be appreciated.
:welcome Time on the water is best learning you can get. There are members over there that have helped many and will help you if you keep fishing.
going out in about an hour. i'm going to put a couple of splits on 5 of my poles to run my bait a little deeper this morning. moon is still up will be up until sunrise.
where are you fishing on talquin. i haven't been out in about a week. i have been using a #7 split shot with a 1/16oz jig and adding another split shot when i see the bait and fish drop deeper on the screen, sometimes even two jigs and a #7.Quote:

I like getting close to the bottom and fish with a 1/4 oz Litewire jig head or double 1/16ths with a # 5 when fishing in the channel. It all depends on how deep the fish are suspended. They seem to like that 15-18 ft range in the channel but don't be afraid to go deeper.....Just my :twocentsQuote:

I think the ones i call yellow are acid rain. caught 12 and kept 6 threw back 6 that were legal but not 12' which is my personal minimum size. Biggest one 1.6 lbs.!!
