Quillback Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Being St. Patrick's Day you would think I could catch a green fish, not one green one did I catch, but I did catch 15 smallmouth. As usual, all on the PB&J Ned, 1/8 oz head. Even though water temps were about the same as when I was out Tuesday (48-49), the fish were closer to the bank, I don't know if I caught more than one or two deeper than 10 feet. Fish are still grouped up, caught just about all of them in 3 locations. Caught 3 keepers, one was a solid 18" fish, weighed almost 3.5 lbs. Dawn from the launch: First bass in the early AM: My best of the day: A nice looking keeper: This post has been promoted to an article Smalliebigs, snagged in outlet 3, rps and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnsfolly Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Quill nice looking smallies! With fish like those no reason to worry about not getting a green bass to the boat. I wish that I could get out on water like that and throw some of my PBJ Neds. They're just sitting in a bag on the bench at home. Just can't make the time to head that far south while balancing work commitments. Looking forward to more posts. mixermarkb and Daryk Campbell Sr 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillback Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 I am getting addicted to these dudes, lots of fun on light spinning tackle, they are really pulling hard. Not much in the way of aerial acrobatics yet, only had one jump yesterday, but it probably got three feet of air - then tossed the Ned. JF, you must be the only fisherman that wasn't out fishing yesterday, man there were boats everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go check out my post on the Other Ozark waters forum. Livie and I were wade fishing a creek with Daryk Campbell Sr. Daryk Campbell Sr and Quillback 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
