still,cloudy, patchy fog
Armed with 3 spinning rods and one tackle box with swimming minnows and some homemade jigheads in it I was hoping to get a few crappie for supper, but these kentucky bass drove me nuts all day! Was lots of fun, but I never caught any crappie Sat. I fished brush,docks, and bluffs. Caught nothing but short and keeper spots everywhere I fished. I started my day fishing brush piles in 10-40' could only catch spotted bass ,but some were 2+lbs. Casting under docks caught the most short fish, but the cables running off the docks had some bigger bass on them. Picked up a few more by vertically jigging the bluffs around shad in 15-35'. over deeper water.
Total of 41 fish, ALL spotted bass,the most spots I had ever caught in one day. 13 of those were keepers ,all of them caught on swimming minnows on 1/8 oz weedless heads. Best colors were smoke silver,firecracker, and blue thunder. All fish were put back. Went home and ate leftover stew,lol
