Quillback Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Rain on the radar scared me away. Couple of early top water fish caught by Ken and his BIL. Lance34, bfishn, nomolites and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members breeves2245 Posted May 15 Members Share Posted May 15 Those both look like a lot of fun on topwater. Is that brown fish as big as it looks? I'm spending a couple days at the Lost Bridge North campground and see if I can do any good. I'll have to dodge some thunderstorms here and there, but so be it.

Quillback Posted May 15 Author Share Posted May 15 They did not weigh anything, so couldn't tell you what that smallie weighed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkG52 Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I'm kicking myself for letting the rain possibilities scare me off Monday as well! Had a trip scheduled for today but my friend backed out to go chase potential 'naders out west. So been out all morning catching up on yard work. Took some guys out Tuesday to bream fish and they caught several and 5 or 6 catfish on night crawlers. I picked up a big black crappie and a few white bass (had 1 green fish come unpinned) throwing jerkbait or Keitech across the pockets I set up in for them to fish the bank. We had a fun afternoon.

I caught a big ol' bluegill yesterday on a Keitech. I may have to break out the redworms soon. bfishn and MarkG52 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big gills have started on the Rock too. Caught a couple on a C-rig of all things and a couple on a football jig. They played havoc with our jig trailer tails. http://whiteriveroutfitters.com http://whiteriverlodgebb.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C rig a half crawler on a #4 or 6 octopus hook with a small float bead just above the hook. Drag very slowly (.5 mph) 5 to 15 feet deep on sandy/gravel primary and secondary points. Use 6 to 8# line and set the drag carefully, as you may have surprise visitors. Have fun. Lance34 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
