Members HardHead Posted March 20, 2017 Members Posted March 20, 2017 Awesome day today - at least for me ? My partner struggled this morn. Hit the water 630 again. Fished right around turkey creek ranch. Put a 4.07lb LM in the boat by 650. Could have put a bag close to 13.5lbs together myself by noon. Wobble head with a beaver style trailer(gp marked up with red and chart dye pen. 7/16oz jig weight. Main lake and secondary points. Was slowly dragging it shallow to deep. Sitting in about 30fow, bite was coming in the 12-20 range. Partner only managed one shortie. After lunch, we ran to some coves just north of Pontiac. Partner switched to the wobble head / beaver combo and put 5 shorts in the boat. I switched to the ned and caught 1 small keeper and 3 more shorts. Had at least 4 more pull off after hook up too. Don't know what the deal was, maybe my drag was too tight? Awesome three days. Headed back home in the morn. Can't wait to come back to bull shoals and hopefully soon. Good luck and tight lines! dtrs5kprs, Quillback, Diamond City Fisher and 3 others 6

Members HardHead Posted March 20, 2017 Author Members Posted March 20, 2017 Woke up this morning, got packed, and decided I had time for 2 more hours on the water. Put in at theodosia and ran back over to the creek right next to turkey creek. Clear creek I believe. 7/16 wobblehead with beaver. Caught 5 more shorts, a 2lber and one more that went 3.17. Had another decent keeper get off at the boat. That area was on fire for me the past few days. On my way to cold Chicago with my wife for business as I type. Will try to post some pics when I find time. Rob P, mixermarkb, Fish24/7 and 1 other 4
