Riddle Bridge to Boiling Springs Overnight 4/15-4/16

[Levi Michael McQueary]

Just got back from my 1st overnight trip. It was a great time. Lots of fish. Mostly goggle-eye. I caught between 40-50 of them between the 2 days. They were not in the timber. It seemed they were behind every rock. No belly's on them. I don't know if they have spawned already or they just aren't showing yet. They 1st day caught plenty of smallies. Many of them still have eggs. One just came in at 18inches. Some bluegill. They size was good just not the numbers I'm used to. They were short striking most of the time no matter what I used. Caught 6 Channel cats. 2 during the evening and 4 at night. 5 caught on dip bait the other cut bluegill. Caught 2 drum on worm. One really big Redear. One crappie.

We floated that stretch last fall and it's a great stretch of river.  Looks like you caught just about everything.
