Killin' Smallies On Jigs

[Ozark Outdoorsman]

I fished last night from 5-730, and again this morning on some of my spots around indian point. I ended up with 12 last night, nothing but brownies and most all keepers. Then this morning I caught 20 with the big fish being a 20.5" 4 pounder. I am throwing a couple different color chompers 1/2 oz jigs and they are eating them whole. Great fishing on TR right now, for smallies at least.

The only part of the lower end of the lake I envy is the Smallmouth numbers. Up here - Holiday Island - we rarely see them.

Good report, OO. May I ask, how deep?

Reason I ask, I received some primo baitcasters to try out from a client who's focused on bass fishing. Since I'm mainly a walleye troller these days, there is a fairly steep learning curve involved--but I do need to get out there and give it a try, and soon. Can't really appreciate these setups and how they handle if I don't stick a few real, live bass! Thanks in advance for any additional info.

10-20 foot, setting the boat in 25 fow most of the time.

We set some jug lines out this evening at Combs Ferry. After we run them in the am, we'll hit some banks and see what we find.

Thanks!
