Hammer time Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Put in at 1pm to 54.2 water temp and gail south wind. Stayed on channel banks and swings entire outing. Fished down to Birch and back. Temp at mouth of Birch 49.8. Caught fish on several baits, rc, wart, bladed jig, jig and deep diving rouge. Active fish I found where in 4-18 fow. Cranks had to be banging bottom and paused to get bit. Jig bite was mushy and soft. Bladed jig just loaded up like usual. Rouge bite was also soft and fish hit bait on long pause between jerks. Had a fun day, seen several bald eagles, group of pintails and one huge otter. Ended up with 22 blacks with 7 keeps, 1 drum and 1 channel cat. CPR and tight lines!

Great water color in river, up at Birch pretty clear and noticed the "slime" or rock snot getting on my jigs and cb's. Hate that stuff, but it happens every spring. Some worse than others.

For sure Dan, they're all pretty but that one has a lot of markings and looks awesome. That's the same thing I thought when I landed her. She hit a bladed jig. dan hufferd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
