With all this rain I felt it my duty to lower the water level at Santee to help handle the influx of all this run off taking place. It was cloudy, cool, with off and on rain all day. None of that mattered, the big fish were biting, and biting often. I love days like this, light winds, light crowds, biting fish. All fish caught jigging brush, logs, grass, and docks. Yeah, everything worked today.

Looks like it was a good day to be on the water.
Thanks for the report
Great catch Ink! Looks like you found some big uns' wanting to play in the rain. Nothing like those kind of trips

Tim, you should come up tomorrow night and help us with flood control.
Great looking box and the fish are really nice too.
Hope we can find some Sat. night.
good workout Ink couple nice boxes of fish and like your report
thanks for sharing
We're going to try some Lake Wylie Flood control tonight hopefully we'll do a good job like you did. Fingers crossed
Made it back to the lake on Saturday, not sure what it is, but the fishing over the last three days has been exceptional. Not only quality, but the numbers of nice fish caught most folks just wouldn't believe. On the conservative side I would say 500 crappie were caught. All fish were caught on the the same colored Rooty Tooty 309. Its Chartreuse with black pepper flake, green wing, and orange head. I actually wore 3 jigs completely out. I fished from one end of the lake to the other, from 4 to 25 feet of water. Structure ranged from docks, trees, grass, lillies, logs, and of coarse brush. One pole fishing at its finest! I forgot to take the cooler shot, but it was the same as the other two days.
Sounds like an awesome day for you Tim.
Congrats on that massive catch rate.
Awesome work Ink. Those are some beautiful fish!
Many thanks guys, it was a great weekend on a great Lake. Tomorrow starts my last weekend of leisure. Next week I go back to 5 nights, with the next few weekends spent working on the mountain property. Friday's will be my only fishing days for a while.
Enjoyed reading about flood controlling Santee, good to see you are so willing to help :) :)
Way to go ink! You are on them that's for sure
