Members HardHead Posted March 31, 2014 Members Posted March 31, 2014 Fished mostly north of the bridge. Wind was a pain, but the fishing wasnt horrible. Lots of stained water. Caught over 100 black bass over the 3 days. Only a couple ww fish, about a dozen on a tube, and most everything on the jig. Smaller was def better for the jig. Only caught 3 short smallies. Caught many short kentuckys. Had about 30 keepers overall, 18 of them were larrys. Biggest was only 3.1lbs. Avg on the keepers was about 2.3lbs. Water was about 47 in the mornings, low 50s when we took out every eve about 6pm. Hope the info helps. Hope the big gals start feeding up soon too.
Members alnt Posted March 31, 2014 Members Posted March 31, 2014 Good to hear the fishing is turning around. I went a couple weekends ago and only had about 10 fish total between whites, blacks and crappie. I would have like to stay with the crappie, but the wind kept blowing me off of my spots. Any hints on how deep you were fishing? I'll be heading back down this weekend to fish near theodosia.
Members HardHead Posted April 1, 2014 Author Members Posted April 1, 2014 Fishing bluffs that were a bit wind protected. Tossing the jig right up on shore line and hopping it off the ledge into deeper water. Fish were hitting all along the drop-off. Most bites came about 10 feet off shoreline. Water depth didnt matter much as long as there was a drop off. I guess I'd say the most productive areas were where the water dropped to 12-15 ft quickly. Saw lots of big blow ups in the shallow exposed brush, but couldnt get any of those fish to bite. Saw a 5/6lber get about 2ft verticle on blow-up. Entire fish was out of the water. Wish I could have landed her.
Bluff-Bassin Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 30+ bass a day is a good trip regardless of size. Thanks for the post!
