3 hoosiers headed to the southland

[crapcat]

Headed to Reelfoot Sat. night never been there and lookin forward to havin a good time. We have no idea how to fish that lake but we're gonna give it try. wondering if casting southern pro twisters is worth a try or just drifting with minnows. We r staying at sportsmans north any info from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

From what I hear the lake is still down alot. Better take a jig pole and plan on jigging the stumps.

called a buddie last night....said lake is up 16 inches...a little muddy i bet....there is no such thing as a bad day of fishing reelfoot...take some yo-yo's and you will have plenty O fish

Are you taking your own boat or renting from Sportsmans.

Lake gauge today scares the daylights out of an 18 inch rise on this last rise. Thats amazing and we have more rain in the forecast in the next few days. I wish I could fish in the tournament this weekend but I have to keep the kiddos while my wife helps with a woman's conference at our church. We have saturday basketball. I missed the last two games, so that will be a fun afternoon. Good luck and may God keep everyone safe this weekend.

Just got back from reelfoot with terrible results. a severe cold front puched thru on sat dropping tons of rain and cold. we fished hard sunday monday and tuesday with only catching 3 fish. the water was brown and the water temps dropped from 51 to 46. gave them lock jawl. from what everyone says the fish were bighting very well prior to our arrival. oh well we had a good time and got to know the lake better for nexttime. mother nature sure can be a bitch.
