When I got to Sardis this afternoon I realized:
A - the weatherman doesn't know what a 5 MPH wind looks like
B - all the mud in the USA is pouring into the lake
Anyone have luck today at Sardis? We worked our butts off trying to get on some fish…never found them. 4 fish in 5 hours of trolling (and one was a hybrid striper). Tried shallow, tried shallower, tried trolling timber, tried tight-lining some stumps…it sucked.
Was pretty good for us but we weren't trolling..
I spoke with 4 different folks who fishes Sardis other than Bigblue and they all limited out. They were all trolling.
We had two limits , plus close to 10-15 throw backs.
Dad and I limited. Four hours. Had the jig poles and cork poles with us but never broke them out.
I ran into a young man who jigged up 20 nice ones with a partner. They were still in the live well and looked nice. He says they were fishing 2-9 fow around Hurricane Creek. Black jigs was all he used.
Yea, I can never understand the weather mans wind predictions.
Had a buddy that caught a double limit trolling. Big uns too.
Interesting reports! We put in around 2 pm and fished til dark...maybe we were in the wrong depth. I talked with several folks at the Tekville ramp who all had the same luck as me.
For those who took limits trolling...how deep were y'all fishing? Im still tryimg to figure this trolling thing out. My best catch so far is 8 fish with 2 guys fishing half a day. Its entertaining but hasnt been terribly productive.
You may want to try getting started earlier in the day.Quote:

I've been going in to work, getting my stuff done, then easing out for the afternoons...might have to bite the bullet and take the whole day off so I can be on the water early. Thanks.

Bird Down said he caught a box full yesterday pole fishin from 3 til 6pm.
Must be a location thing…we caught 2 fish in that same time period with six lines in the water the whole time.:donoQuote:

Buddy and his son had a limit in 1.5 hours the next day both had limits by noon. Single pole jigs in timber.
