Pascagoula river again 25oct2017

I decided to go to the Pascagoula river again today. I guess the first time wasn’t fluke, because I ended up finding them.

I tried to just do the same thing as last time, but didn’t have any luck. So I started jigging deep wood and found them. Found them in between 8’-15’ of water right against tress and docks. All of them were caught jigging with various colors. I’d jig with a color until I stopped getting a bite, then I’d switch colors and I’d end up finding more fish.

No slabs, but some decent eaters, kept 9 crappie and a bass. One thing I learned, I need a net. I lost a slab trying to boat flip it. Also lost a 3-4 pound bass right at the boat when I went to lip it.

Nice catch and yes you do need a net

Nice! Know you had a blast!

Another solid trip!

Are there any gators on that river?

I’ve only been there twice and in this last trip I saw one.

Where is the boat ramp located?

Little river marina north of exit 68. On hwy 613

A NET IS YOUR FRIEND , GOOD EATING THERE

Thank you. BTW, I've never had a net in my boat. I miss a couple but not many. I've seen about as many missed someone trying to reach for a net as the other way around. And yes, I catch plenty of 2 plus pound ones. Just my preference. And I single pole with jigs only. Thanks for the info. Looks like a cool place to fish. I'm way up in Memphis but I'm always looking. I get tired of the wind on the big 4.

I used to fish in the back bay regularly for reds, specks, and flounder and have never had or needed a net. Most of these crappie I’ve caught are just barely hooked and I end up ripping there lips when I boat flip them.

The wind is getting old, but I’ve only gone when it’s windy anyway. It’s not going to stop me from fishing. I’ll just find a cut out of the wind.

Sweet! Glad to see succesful reports from the coast. Nets work, but I rarely use them. Maybe i am just not coordinated enough with everything else in the boat:dono
