Fishing Report

[vince]

Put in at twin bridges and went up the spring r Mon and Tues nov20-21. Mon we netted some shad and caught about half our fish on them. We would drop the shad to the bottom and then up a couple of feet. The rest caught on grubs and swimming minnows, smoke was the best color. Most caught in 15-20 ft of water. Mon we had 25 whites and 5 crappie, Tues we had 30 whites and 5 crappie and fished just with jigs. Water temp 50. Caught all the fish below the high line that crosses over. vince

Vince,

Very nice fish before the weather turned and surely changed things drastically.

So you went up river from Twin Bridges, but from your comments about the water depth you were fishing I'm assuming you didn't go up very far.

Most of our spring fishing is above the Hwy 10 bridge, where all the water is relatively shallow.

I don't recall any reference to "high lines" up above the bridge.

Could you give me an idea of how far above Twin Bridges that would be?

Thanks, too, for checking the water temp. That is a huge factor, as you obviously know, for success locating white and hybrid bass particularly in the transitional seasons.

Do you live near that area?

Thanks in advance for your follow-up.
