Members capndan Posted February 6, 2016 Members Posted February 6, 2016 Small window to fish tomorrow putting in at Cooper. Thought I would hit from just above the narrows back down to Fall creek. Is white still the ticket I was throwing that two and three weeks ago. read that was good a few days ago still. I have three white maribou left, I have a few blacks and some lighter weird colored greenish olive. Schedule says just 1 unit tomorrow. Have they been staying with that? Last Sunday the schedule said two and they ran 3 and we caught about 40 on brown with orange and brown but I am totally out of those as well. I switched to my last olive and hooked up with several before I lost it. Also had a monster well over 6 lbs chase it as I pulled it in from under a rootwad. About had a heart attack. I waited for the bight but still struck a half second early. Going to garage to hook up. Will check back in a little while hoping to hear some good advice.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted February 6, 2016 Root Admin Posted February 6, 2016 They've cooled off on white but I'd still throw it a little. They're back on the dark colors - sculpin, brown, black and mixed - with orange and ginger. I have a big tournament starting at 8. Might have one or two teams go above Fall Creek so that's the place to be. FC down will be a zoo. If you're coming by the shop to pick up jigs, be there well before 8 or you'll get caught in the takeoff. Dock is full of boats too - you'll have to find a place to tie up. Don't drive in with a boat in tow... parking lot full too. Should be a good day. Had 2 big trout brought in today and heard of 3 stories of losing big fish.
Members capndan Posted February 6, 2016 Author Members Posted February 6, 2016 Kind of what I was thinking, but I would rather hear it from you than me that's for sure. One of my basketball players and his dad from when I coached at Shiloh Christian back in 2000 have an awesome riverboat and they got me into jig fishing on the white. They gave me a ton of awesome hand tied jigs and over the last three years I have been learnig from you guys and getting it somewhat figured out on Trouteliciouscomo. I sure appreciate all the videos and posts I am still a paddawan but gaining speed and having a blast on an awesome fishery we are blessed with! I might zoom down from cooper you open at 7 is that correct? Thanks again. Hope your tournament goes off without a hitch and someone catches a new state record!
