Thread: FULL WINTER BITE IN OCTOBER ?

it by golly was yesterday in the howling north wind and cccold in shallow water .
I dropped my jig to 7 foot deep , note how far below my 6 foot rod.
in like 7.5 to 8 foot of water .
and you had to hold it still as a statue and wait for it .
then they would hit it so hard you would about lose your rod .
I mean just like a December deep fish bite , just smack the fire out it like someone took a hammer to your rod tip .
Both species present and accounted for as well .
no small fish in the mix either and its a small fish lake most of the time
shad all over the surface all around me struggling
gots to love it , nothing beats a hammer bite from a crappie on a jig in the winter
KABOOM IS THE WORD
