Got out this past week for my usual Thursday and Friday fish off. As is the norm, fished Thursday solo, took my better half on Friday. Thursday I vertically jig fished brush, the bite continued to be slow, but some nice are being caught. Friday me and my peep fished the same general areas, but this time minnows were used, under a float, and tight lined. Pretty much the same results were had both days, with minnows catching more smaller fish that had to be culled through. A limit catch was had on Thursday, we ended up with around 30 keepers on Friday. Darker colored Rooty Tooty 309's were used in the morning, switching to lighter colored ones as the sun got up in the afternoon on Thursday. Water temps are continuing to rise, with 87 being about average. The lack of substantial rain has the water clearing up in all the shallow water areas, but some decent fish are still being caught in waters as shallow as 6 feet, with 12 to 14 feet being best.
