High Rock Saturday

Pulled crankbaits to start the morning at High Rock Saturday morning along with a few alabama rigs for stripers. No stripers, but did pick up a few crappie on the cranks. Changed over and pulled jigs to about lunch. Probably caught 20 or more. Kept 7 for supper and released the rest. They guys with minnows were catching a lot more than us with jigs. Also the ones throwing jigs around docks were doing better than us pulling. Met some new friends that I have been talking to here. Small world. Began talking to one of the guys on here and the guy he was fishing with was the past owner of the little skeeter boat I have been fixing up to crappie fish out of.

Yes sir it was nice meeting you as well. We ended up with 73 keepers and released around 15 to 20, 3 catfish 5-10lbs, 6 baby stripers 8 to 10" and 5 white perch. the crappies were the normal high rock crappie 8 to 12" but we did have 2 around 1.5lbs it turned out to be a good day the bight was Manley on minnows 1 crank off the bottom picked up a few on double 1/16 jigs and none off single jigs.

Noticed we were doing more riding and you were doing more catching. lol. I told my wife everything looked near the bottom. Should have put some jigs down there, but had enough by then.

Matt if they don't use that trolling bar they took off, I may be interested in buying it.

I'll defiantly check for you. If they are using it i know the guy who made it or I can try and help you out I made the one that was on my boat ether way we can get you hooked up.

That is nice. I had one on my carolina skiff that just slid down in the two flush mount rod holders in the back so was very easy to take on and off.

I pulled for stripers Sat. also, no luck on them but caught half dozen crappies and a couple perch on crank bait. I stayed out on the main lake. At least you had a good trip up to The Rock Tight Line

Yes in indeed it was great day weather could have been better. I know you guys were saying that you were pulling for stripers with not much luck I have talked to a guy that has supposedly been catching a lot up around Cane Creek pulling two colors with bucktails.
