Long Day on Louie
Fished Louie yesterday from early until late. Started off slow and small. Found fish in some old spots, but they weren’t interested in biting, and the few I caught were small. They weren’t interested in my old standby red and chartreuse tube. Tried a few jigs I had tied and caught a few on a silver chenille with grey marabou with a couple strands of red and silver tinsel in the tail. I got out a 1/16 ounce Big Bite jig with a pearl and silver glitter tube, and the fish seemed to like it better. I had to put the jig in their face and hold it still, but they would bite.
Changed tactics a bit and started fishing big tree tops that had fallen in the water. That made a big difference! I think there was a crappie tournament on Louie Saturday, so that might explain why the usual places didn’t produce.
Ended up keeping 15 mostly small fish with a few good ones also. Only got rained on once! Learned a lot of new places, and have a new favorite jig. Caught some on jigs that I tied!
Nice day!
