Them sure look like conway fish. I used to go there starting in late march and just wear them out on jigs. I never would use bait until the lilypads came on strong. Looks like ya'll had some fun.
When the bream gets right, it ruins my crappie fishing. Wife and I can crappie fish for 30 minutes and then she want's to hit the bream holes.
Great pic of the kids. Nothing better.
I don't use live bait. Caught them on Dana Max jigs. Out fish a cricket any day. Crickets waste time due to re baiting. With the jig you just keep chunking.
"Save a minnow use a jig"
Looks like alot of fun and memories;). Congrats.:)
What does the jig look like and where can you find them. Just googled and no luck.
LOL that is what im talkin about!!!
nice mess o fish!!!
I have made them for myself when I couldn't find them anywhere. Been thinking about making them to sell...
The jigs are made Pattons.
Bates in Mayflower has a hundred or so different color combos for about a dollar a piece, save a little by the dozen. (crappie or bream)
McSwains in NLR has a small selection.
One jig is good for 50-75+ fish.
I will post pics when I get home.
nice mess!! I'm ready for this next full moon... tha brimzin should be on like donkey-kong!
Nice fish.
Jiggin Joe thats a nice stringer of fish. If you dont mine what lake did you go too?
I like them cowboy boots. I bet that little girl is a fish slingin' fool.
I fish Lake Conway. That's a small stringer, only 20 fish, we fished only an hour yesterday evening.Quote:

Bream on the left crappie on the right. The bream are alot smaller.
how do you work them jigs in the water??
Thanks. In-laws live not far from Bates. I'll have them check or check myself the next visit.
Whenever I find Red Ears, it's always by mistake. Anyone got any tips on how to locate them on PURPOSE???? :)
aj
Talked to my buddy just a while ago... Him and his wife caught 20 or so this evening. 3/4lb average some 1lb. Caught them on a jig pole, jig
Under a bobber in the lillies.
You just see them hot spots... Low limb overhanging a fast bank, add a little stick up and there you have it. Alot of times they look like lil sharks swimming around. Dorsal fin out of the water.
You nailed that one! AMENQuote:

Anymore I buy straight Chartreuse.
great pic....
We didn't know which colors to buy, but the little lady being as smart as she is, just picked randomly out of the bins that had the most already goneThumbs Up She figured the best sellers would be the hottest. We'll see.Quote:

One technique we used back in Texas instead if jigs , we would get large (#11) pork rinds in any light color and cut them with sissors into strips about 1/4" X 1" . We used white alot. Just put the strip on a long shank bream hook and fish under a cork. The rind last forever and they really work.
