Members Bg193ch Posted September 12, 2016 Members Posted September 12, 2016 Got in the water by 630. Launched from hickory. Little drizzle so we thought we'd whack em with buzzbaits. Freaken zero. Proceeded up the white trying different spots and just couldn't get bit. Started getting windy so I tried a spinnerbait. Zero! Tried various spots along the white and then war eagle. Caught a couple on a,shakey head around docks. That's about it. Guess they were deeper that day or we just didn't cover enough water. Or the right water. Water temp was between 80-83 with clarity ranging from dirty (way up the river) to light stain at HC. Always good to fish tho. You hear there's always fish shallow. Not where we were. Lance34 1
J-Doc Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 The reliable sources I know and my on experience say they are still offshore and deep or suspended. In that area anyway. Not saying you won't catch them shallow because I did but nothing to pattern. Bg193ch 1 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!
Quillback Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 September is so tough at times, but a guy should be able to get a sniff or two on the buzz bait early. Get 'em next time.
Members Bg193ch Posted September 12, 2016 Author Members Posted September 12, 2016 Thanks guys for the feedback. Hoping to get back out there this Sunday. I think this time I'm gonna try the top water around the steep points and then back out and try the deeper as the day progresses.

All fish I've caught the last month including today were in 30-60 FOW. Bluff walls and flats. I tried beating the bank for an hr today with nothing.
Members Bg193ch Posted September 13, 2016 Author Members Posted September 13, 2016 Thanks Dan. You learned after an hour. I'm a slow learner. Took me 8 hours. Lol. I hope you whack em tmrw.
