Fish Bork Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 Going down to do a little float during spring break next week from Waymeyer to Van Buren. I've never been on the river this early and wondering about what works best? I'm just thinking jigs and small spinnerbaits. Am I on the right track? Thanks Time flies like an arrow.

creek wader Posted March 16, 2007 Posted March 16, 2007 Your on the right track. But, I'd also bring a Rebel Wee Craw or two. Smallies love em. When the smallie action gets slow, the sunfish and googleye will keep you busy, with them. wader

Fish Bork Posted March 29, 2007 Author Posted March 29, 2007 The day was perfect but the water was up and I have no idea where to find fish on the Current. I'm can fish smaller rivers where there is a definite line between riffle and pool. I caught one smallmouth around 12 inches. I'll get more practice later and get good at it. What was fun was the backwater behind watercress spring and we were catching chain pickerel like crazy. Those little buggers are fun to catch. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

Fish Bork Posted March 30, 2007 Author Posted March 30, 2007 I was throwing a swimming minnow. I think anything would work. If you fish there you get a lot of practice with your accuracy because there are tons of logs in that backwater. I lost probably 5 or 6 jigs. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
