Made it out to Old River for the first time in about a month or so and caught a limit in 2 hours. Trolled a double jig rig and purple seemed to be the color of choice for em... Caught two on the same pole for the first time, TWICE!!! LOL I had a great time and was glad to catch a mess close to home instead of driving 2 hours to catch em.. Here are the pics enjoy..

Nice Catch 501, Looks like the bite is on.

THis is Old River Lake in Scott.. CP i do believe the bite is starting to heat up!!!
Did you stop by and get a hubcap at Scott?
Gotta love them hubcaps! Thumbs Up
Lol yeah my gf lives down the road from Cotham's so i get me an ol' hubcap quite often!!!
looks like you were a good student of the game !!!!
Man o' man!! I sure miss Old River lake. Went to church with a fella that had land on the lake then ended up with a client that lived on it so I had two possible accesses. A man could limit out in no time. Red/chart tube jigs were the weapon of choice. Some time tipped with minnow and some time the minnows were not your friend. Loved eating a good meal at Cotham's on the old highway. Are they still open? Best days I remember were windy ones. We'd motor into the wind, drop four poles each, and let the wind carry us. Easy peasy way to a limit of nice fish.
Good mess of fish...many years ago used to catch them in Scott Old River on red, blue and white...did better when the blue was like the sky and the white was not pearl...brings back many good memories...thanks for the post...
where is this place at fishing sounds good and a hubcap burger sounds delcious!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice catch 501, thanks for the report and pictures.
Nice!
Nice catch! My boss has a house on the old river, and i can fish it anytime. Ive only been once and didnt have much luck. looks like i need to keep trying.
Yea when it is on it is on!!! Went today and kept 23 (with a buddy).. Kept 9 good ones and the rest were just good eaters.. I have been keeping smaller fish this fall to just try and do my part in managing the dinks.. Cothams is still up and kicking!!!Quote:
