Linda and I hit the creek about 7:30 the 7 mph winds were about 14, later in the morning we saw some white caps. We pulled it at 11:30. We set up to troll with only a couple minnows in the water. The fish bite anything all colors, mostly small 6-8 inches. I put 11 in the box for dinner. Linda didn't catch anything because her shoulder is still in need of repair, now scheduled for July.
Alawys nice to spand part of the day on the water.
Way to go Grady. You better get her shoulder fixed so ya'll can really load the boat.
Nice catch Grady and thanks for sharing. I,hope you can get her shoulder fixed soon.

Glad you two had some fun together bringing in some fish. It's always fun catching.
Did you longline 1/8 jigs with any color tipped with a minnow or long line plus tight lined minnows?

Lee, tight lined minnows and ran plastics only on the long lines
Nice catch Grady. Did the fish prefer minnows over the jigs? Do you tightline the minnows AND longline troll at the same time ? I know the speed of the trolling but I don't tightline. Thanks for sharing the pics.
good going Grady glad you got a mess for supper
thanks for report and pics
I pushed minnows and jigs there Thursday. They didn't want them sitting still for me.

Sam,
Yes we found they like the jig and minnows moving at .9-1.0 mph, only had 3 rods with minnows and 6 with jigs, the minnows got bigger fish. We had them all out, some sliders, some with the little spoon, two with a feather tail( caught a catfish on that)
Must have been fun Grady! Hope Linda's shoulder gets better. I need you to take me over there sometime I have not fished there. How big of a place is this? :cheers2
Ron, it's 350 acres, a large part is too shallow to fish and only about 30ft deep at the dam. The Crappie seem to bite better when the water temp are high.Let me know when you are off and we can hit the water. Best bet is launch at 7 fish till noon or so, unless it's over cast it just is too hot to be out there
Nice Grady good looking yum yum there.
That's a good looking catch.

Can you fish at night on Cane Creek? If not, I would still like to go maybe on one of my days when I off 6 days!:highfive
Good catch Scoop. Nice pics too.
If it's the Cane Creek in Union county NC the answer is no, they close the gates at 7 PM and if you are not there when they close you have to pay them to open the gate!
If you pay to camp you can bank fish but no boats on the water after dark
