Blunks

I was there today and saw them doing it. I went in to investigate and one was hitting a big gizzard shad, there my a-rig in next to it and a big ole sow ate my rig. I had on 1/8th ounce crappie jig heads and when i set to hook with the braid it bent my hook strait, woops, forgot to set the drag..... I got a good look at the fish though, it was a nice one

I’m going to take the river rat boat down there tomorrow and check things out. I’ll post my findings. Don’t hold your breath though.

So. To begin my recoil start in my Johnny didn’t cooperate today. Went to cane bottom instead of Blunks. Water was green, visibility to about 24”. Had to use the trolling motor. Dragged a silver sided rap count down. One nice crap. Trolled from the old fence row up to the flat before the channel swing to Longs. Settled upon the flat just up from the ramp at Ashers. Anchored there and caught another nice crap, WB and blue gill. Watched a guy snag a nice bill right there above on the ramp side of the rock bluff.  Found a high pressure pattern. Drag a white stump jumper below a doll fly. The slower the better. If you think your dragging too fast, it’s because you are. Had my line broke on a nice WB.

Intersting note. I got to meet the “new”? Game warden. Officer Kirby. Waiting at the ramp. She checked my stringer and permit. They get younger every year. Said she was heading to blunks next.
