Greenwood 4/09/17

I put in at the Citgo Landing about 7:00AM and motored to below Bridge on Harris Landing side of Lake. Really wanted to stay out of main boat traffic especially in early fog.

I have purchased a new trolling motor and depth finders thus really checking out equipment and trying to longline. I landed 9 fish, largest was 11-inches. As others recommended dark colors; mine was June-bug with chartreuse tail (Kalin Grub Style). The water was 15- foot transitioning up to a submerged point on the upstream side of point and believe I was running about 7-feet deep. I suspect these were scattered females, they were not fat.
I stayed in this area till 10AM then crossed to opposite side of Lake and proceeded to Twin River area. Boat traffic picked up thus I left. Very pleasant morning!
Have to work on some flats to understand my depth/speed/jig size ratio. I normally spider rig.
I was pleased that the Citgo Landing was not full, I may try to go late afternoon this week.

Sounds like a worthwhile trip and your new gear works well. Thanks for the report. I've never fished Greenwood but want to someday.

Thanks for the report. Greenwood can look like I-85 sometimes with the traffic.

Thanks for the report. Greenwood can look like I-85 sometimes with the traffic.

Agreed. I don't go there on the weekends for that reason.

Thanks for the report msdelta.

Glad you caught some. It has been slow at the Wood lately.
