10/16 - 10/19 report

[alnt]

Water temp - 67-70

Water level - 664 to 662 and falling

Water color - stained

Fished Theodosia arm all 4 days.  Found a ton of mostly small bass in the coves on the edge of the brush/near the old shore line.  Caught 20-40 LMB/kentuckies, bluegill, white bass and crappie each day (~6 hrs of fishing) between two of us.  This was consistent for all 4 days.  We ended up with enough bluegill/crappie/white bass each day to clean 5-15 good fish each night.  We caught most casting grubs, but also a few trolling crankbaits.  I also caught a couple 2-3 lb LMB from the shore on a jig, plus had several hit a and missed a topwater.

really appreciate the report alnt, ty

i was out yesterday after lunch for 4 hours in Big Ck. , bass were schooling on top all afternoon

picked up a lipless crankbait and threw it the entire time with very good results

I found out you can't reel a lipless crank with an 8.1 ratio reel faster than a bass can swim,lol

bone jarring strikes!
