Members zummy Posted July 7, 2015 Members Posted July 7, 2015 Got in this afternoon. Got the 3 day license. We are staying in Lost Bridge village. Went out this evening for an hour. Found crappie suspended in timber in 30 fow. Fish were about 25 ft. Couldn't get a taker but it was pretty obvious what they were. Then threw a shad crankbai r along shore on a main lake point. No bites, but coming back down it I used a 1/4 oz jig head with a chartreuse 3" grub body. Caught one smallmouth missed 3 others. One was a size able fish that hit right at the boat. I'll be on the water bright and early. Hoping to find some surfacing whites/stripers. sah 1
J-Doc Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 Good luck!! Sounds like you will do well. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message. He will treat you like family!!! I owe fishinwrench a lot of thanks. He has been a great mechanic with lots of patience!
Amery Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 Don't forget the night bite. A junebug speed vide craw will catch those smallmouth.
Members zummy Posted July 7, 2015 Author Members Posted July 7, 2015 Forgot to add by 745 very few boats out. Do whites not bust shad in the evenings down here? Kept waiting for a frenzy but it never came.
J-Doc Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 They do. But this year, I have not seen the normal activity. Usually around Rocky Branch this time of year you can find a school. Need marine repair?

Members zummy Posted July 7, 2015 Author Members Posted July 7, 2015 So far this morning 1 smallie. Couple smaller bites I imagine were bluegill. Have been over 2 schools of fish that at home I would've guessed were white bass but jigging spoons had no takers. Seeing what I can find now.
jolicious Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 If you have the stuff in the boat with you this morning, Flip craws in <5' water at every bush you can find.
Members zummy Posted July 7, 2015 Author Members Posted July 7, 2015 That's pretty much what I was doing but still with a grub. Chartreuse was again the color. Need to go get some imitation crawfish stuff. I have a couple small crankbaits. Rain just ran me off. Never saw a surfacing school all morning. Was on the water at 0530
