gotmuddy Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 Today I took advantage of the warm weather and fished the 11 point. I launched at the narrows with my trusty jon boat and 9.9 and started my way upstream. I made it a few hundred yards before having to get out and drag the boat up a shoal. I had to drag up three shoals before I was able to get to my destination, morgan spring camp. It was worth the trouble, as I caught all of my fish in that stretch of river. 10 fish total, 3 largemouth, 4 brownies, and 3 pickerel(including my new PB 19"). It was a very peaceful trip. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.
Guest Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 I'm very impressed. Nothing like river fishing. Thats a Megabass 110,correct? Nice lookin color,

I'm new to the Ozark fishing area...what is a pickerel? Is it a type of bass?
gotmuddy Posted February 15, 2011 Author Posted February 15, 2011 I'm very impressed. Nothing like river fishing. Thats a Megabass 110,correct? Nice lookin color, Yep. Caught 8 of the 10 fish on it, then lost it Worth the $25 though. The fish were coming up from 10-15ft and smashing it. I'm new to the Ozark fishing area...what is a pickerel? Is it a type of bass? they are related to northern pike and muskie. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.

Want to make sure I get the right bait for $30, you know. I'm interested in how you fish these baits in creeks and rivers. Is it a twitch/stop cadence, a slow roll, or pulling/dragging retrieve? Also, how long do you let it sit there? thanks
gotmuddy Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 You can get them for $25 free shipping at tackle warehouse and other places. I try to twitch it randomly then pause(twitch 3 times, then 4, then 2, etc). Sometimes I pause 1-2 sec, sometimes more. It seemed that the longer I left it sitting the better it worked. Considering the water was in the mid 40s the fishing was good. I cant WAIT to hit the buffalo this weekend. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.
Guest Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 I bought that "pro-green" model on saturday. I was impressed with the looksof it in the water. Some baits lose thier appeal when they hit the water. This bait, looks the part. I didnt fish it very long, tho.
