Dock Shooting LOZ "No non-targeted species were caught!"

It was decided to head to the lake for some dock shooting. Arrived and I made sure the plug was inserted into the boat and tightened down. I also made sure Richard checked, or at least look at it, and we were off.
The first dock was very productive. Watch the line wiggle or go limp, then set the hook. Richard is still a lot better than I am, but I’m catching on. Fish finally fizzled out at that dock so we went to another. Seems like there was nothing there so let’ get to another. We each had our limits by noon. We were using Blue Ice, and thenThreadfin shad colors on number 4 jig heads. We’d shoot them in and let them sink down, reel a little slow, and let the lure sink again. Any little wiggle or limp line “set the hook”. Richard had to remind me about that a few times again. It was a very good day!!!!! And the proof is in the picture:

Nicely done! Glad old dogs can learn new tricks after all!

Wow very nice!!!!!

Had a good day out with Paul. We seen some strange behavior by one point though. The waves had pushed millions of these tiny bugs into a floating mat. Seen what looked like schools of carp sucking the water like they do. As I got close to a couple of the schools they would scatter I finally floated close enough to see the fish and it was catfish. Hundreds of fiddler sized channel cats in at least a dozen different schools sucking up those dead bugs. Looks like LOZ will have plenty of channel cats available next year. Paul is getting alot better at the dock shootn. If I can just get him to set the hook!:biggrin

Look like all had a good time.

Claybuster we put in at Coffmans Beach and fished the Indian Creek and Boggs Cove. One thing for sure no nibblet no bite and the glitter ones work better plus it gives a nice sparkle to your lips.

Nice catch ,I have never done that before dock shooting ,but gone to give it a try [emoji106]

One of these days you may get this thing right. I can't believe that no bass or catfish were caught. Good job guys.

Great job fellas. Glad you got the drain plug issue fixed:biggrin

Nice , we just bought a house in Warsaw have not made it to loz yet.

Welcome to Mo. Frank C. hope to see you on the water sometime. Your in a great spot to find and catch fishes.

No such thing as a non target species unless there is money on the line
