Taneydate 12:54:12 I was back out just before first light and boated up to Fall Creek - had a quick chat with a couple of guys on the dock there, I was a little dissapointed they didn't offer coffee....so I  started fishing, cloudy sky with a light breeze and the drift speed was 1.6 MPH (GPS verified).

I came out of the gate fishing a white jig and had some success. Mostly small ones on the house side.

Right before the boat ramp I maneuvered so I was a little closer to the ramp so I could throw in that direction - on the white jig I picked up this nice Brown...he hit like a freight train and it took me some time to get him to the boat so I could net him. Got him in, took a pic, release him and by that time I was past the Condo's.

Next cast = snag and a break off so I switched to a pink jig with a white head...I have never fished anything that bold in color and frankly I didn't really think I would catch anything....but then I remembered the empty jig drawers and the chalk etched black board with the "you have to have these to catch fish" bait written on it back at Lilleys and I thought could hundreds of other anglers and guides be wrong??  

Well my angler / guide friends you were not - I ended up boating another 4 nice ones before I had to come in for a conf. call. 

Best of luck out there!

P.S. Sorry the pic is upside down...just turn your confuser over and it will be fine.
