Lifes2Short Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 Quite the interesting day on the water. We ended up with about 30 which included a small limit. Fished around Roark Bluff and caught them mainly on jigs and crank baits. Don’t know if you heard or not but it took 29 pounds to win Joe Bass yesterday, yes 29 pounds!!! Water temps were 47 to 50° dan hufferd and Johnsfolly 2
Mhyde Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 I fished Joe Bass yesterday and that was an UNREAL sack Jay and Troy brought to the scales!!!!! They put it on all of us , when Jay Carter is on fish at Stockton.... LOOK OUT he's going to kick the field in the teeth!!!
Members Bassin' fool Posted April 9, 2018 Members Posted April 9, 2018 29 pounds!? Wow! Glad we left before weigh in, after the day we had I don’t think I could’ve handled that kick in the gut LOL! Seems like there’s getting to be bigger and bigger bags weighed at Stockton every year
Members sixstring531 Posted April 9, 2018 Members Posted April 9, 2018 Shhhhhhh! We don't need Stockton to turn into another over-fished tourney lake! liphunter 1
redshad Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 What were some of the other weight brought in? Was 2nd place over 25?
Mhyde Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 when we left second was 21 something but someone else may have been holding a bag until the last minute to weigh.

Jmontgo1246 Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 That was a crazy day on the water...29 wins...21 was second..couple 18lb bags...3 or 4 just over 17lbs...then the weights dropped...last check for 11th place had 13.71lbs. Think there were 4 fish over 8lbs...maybe 3 over 7lbs. We had 13.50 lbs and just missed the check line. Had a 5.83 kicker fish just couldn’t catch the better quality keepers (2 to 3lb class) i have been on. Lot more big fish showing up right now...heck I even caught one over 7lbs about a week ago. Not all coming on a rig either...mine came on jerkbait and I know jigs have produced as well...my buddy had a 8.8lber a couple weeks ago. Now hopefully the water will warm up!!
redshad Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 The lake is producing some quality fish this spring (late winter). That is great to hear. Now I just need to find some time to get on the water. We have a big group that camps the last weekend in April at Cedar Ridge every year. Hoping we might hit just right this year. Thanks for all the great info that everyone shares.
