Lake Darbonne - Pre-Spawn Fishing!

Finally got out on the lake last week after a long time off due to boat being in the shop.

The fish were very happy to cooperate with me and wound up with a lot of big ones. They're still in early pre-spawn mode in my area (North Louisiana) but suspended fish are biting pretty readily.

Good luck to everybody out there and remember to take the kids fishing every chance you get!

Nice, good job.

Here many times they fail to chase or just won't bite . We use longer poles and hold right on their nose for up to a minute then wham. Unless they move they have not seen anything . Sometimes your on the tail instead of the head . A few times we have put it on a big fish about a dozen times in muddy water to get a reaction .

Good video! Thanks for sharing
