Wind was to bad to troll so we just shot 1/24 hal flies under the bridge,technique was shoot it and let it fall and pendulum back toward the boat watch for the twitch and set the hook!

A bass fisherman caught a slab there yesterday on a 6 inch worm 2.83 lb. On digital scales!
Good job. I have fished that part of Jackson lake a few times. Jackson can be a lot of fun when they are biteing
Nice catch we need to hook up
what color halfly was you using jigslinger if you dont mind sharing that....i was catching the other day on a white/red/white halfly
Now that's the way to bring in the new year!Thumbs Up Most of us didnt even think about fishing in all that wind and look at what we missed!:yikes Congrats.
Panfisher ....color didn't seem to matter much most were caught on red/white/ white or black/white/white. Also caught some on red/green/yellow. What did matter was weight they'd hit the 1/24 but not 1/32 or 1/16
Bowman...I literally had one spot to get the boat positioned just right where the bridge pilings blocked the wind ,and had to stay on the trolling motor to keep it there.if the front or back came out of that hiding spot I was doing 360s down the lake before I could get it back under controll!
Nice catch. I'm gonna have to go try Jackson soon.
Were do you get some hal flies I can't find any?
I usely use jiffy jigs, but I picked up a few hal flies at potts store on this particular trip. If your not familiar with the area potts store is a chevron gas station just north of lake jackson.
Thanks I do to. I do know where potts store is I used to have a lot on the lake off of Norman dr. I just hadn't seen any hal flies in a while. I looked online at hal flies web site and they were double the price as jiffy jigs.
i killed the crappie in upper end of jackson years ago.havent found good fish in past 4 or 5 years.what am i doing wrong
Try again....they seem to be doing better now!Quote:
