Thread: Debunking Myths

I have had some very good trips fishing muddy waters. The one thing that people make mistakes about muddy water is jig colors. Most think they need to use dark color jigs for muddy to hard stained water but the opposite works most of the time. You need to really work these waters and try different colors until you find the one working for that day and ' don't ' over look a white jig. If you can find a well pronounced mud line as it is mixing with stained even clear water fish it, you may be amazed by the fish using this line.

Ronnie, last spring I caught Broad coming down muddy and I seen that well pronounced line between mud and light stained water. It was a slow moving mudline as the water seened to be almost still with no winds or currents from dam operations. I trolled that line almost half way across the river and back several times and limited out on good sized fish holding right along that transition line. That pronounced mud line isnt something you find often...especially in the Broad River section of Clark Hill Lake.
