Heating up in the Deep South

The last little rise has fell out of the delta where I fish and I was able to get a couple of limits. Fished my home lake Monday and Tuesday 10 - 11 FOW and fish were biting 5 - 6 FD. Pushing jigs. Water stained to a little muddy which is normal for where I fish. They were eating a black/chartreuse curly tail hot grub the best. Way more short fish than kepers though. Good thing I wasn't using minners. Since I have quit using minners it's like I have been released from restriction.Attachment 261499Attachment 261500Attachment 261502 Going by reporting from other local fishermen many fish a little south east of me have already spawned but I don't think that is the case where I'm at. Water temperature was 63 Monday and 66 yesterday. All the fish I kept, except for 3 or 4, were female full of roe.

Nice box of fish!! WTG That southern pro hot grub is a killer for sure.

Great catch Tony. Heading to miller ferry for the weekend. Hope that biting up that way.

Where do y'all get the got grub?

Grizzly Jig. Buy all my tackle from them

Way to go Tony!!

By the way, I haven't bought a minnow in years and seemed to catch more fish without them.

Excellent job Tony. Congrats!

Good job boss

Ditch, there was a boat slow trolling minnows right in the same area with me all morning and the caught half of what I did pushing those jigs. i haven't bought a minnow this year and now my confidence is where I don't think I will in the future.
