[Fish24/7]

Wt 35

Sunday ,67 degrees, where was everybody ?

Ya'll must have went home early, only saw one boat.

Fished from 3:30pm-dark. Took about a half hour of looking with electronics to find some fish before I made my first cast. I didn't check if they were running any water before I went but I had heard they were pulling water earlier in the week running 6 units so I decided to stay out of the coves and fish offshore away from the banks. I found a good concentration of fish on a huge flat on a N. bank of the Theodosia arm. Idling around I found some shad balls and fish in 20-35'. Tried a  deep diving crankbait, nadda. Deep jerkbait..nothing. First cast with a soft plastic tube drug along the bottom and WHACK! 3lb. largemouth , next cast another 3lber. 3rd cast 3lber. again! Caught 3 more short fish there all largemouths. These bass were really aggressive , very hard strikes, no doubt you had a bite. Wish I would have had more time, but I was happy with the results

I fished the White River. I caught 121 fish including two decent Largemouth Bass. I'm anxious to get back on Bull, but I waiting for the spring thaw.
