Kim City - March 6 - Deep swimbait

[Dock-in-it]

I have been fishing deep with a swimbait and the bite is pretty good. I fished this morning and stayed in one creek with the boat setting in 50ft FOW. The presents of gizzard shad was key. One location had lots of trees that topped out at 20ft below the surface and another location was the end of a channel swing with a few pole timber trees. The fish were using the entire water column and I avoided trying to catch them vertical. The fish that were down about 15 to 20ft were the easiest to catch. The deep fish activity really slows down about 8 to 8:30.

Currently, the fish can be caught at any depth that you prefer and the bait of your choice.

I used a 3.25" SB, underspin, and 3" Damiki. 

WT 47-49

Nice work. I am going to have to try and figure out that deep bite some day.

Not in my lifetime! You have trouble getting 10 feet from the bank! But you do catch fish, so who am I to question you!!
