Dutch Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Jeff met me this morning at 07:45 at the Cape Fair ramp. It was 31° and foggy. The water in the cove was 35°. It was 39-41 on the main lake. The water is dingy to dirty. Below Wolly Creek before you get to Carney Branch the lake was covered with ice. I didn’t see any sign of any other boat having gone through so we made a path. We fished several different ways, the places that produced and had a 4 1/2 hour skunk. Going for broke we hit something totally different and it worked. In the last hour and a half we caught smb, lmb and spots. All came on Ned in 27-53’. We wound up with 35 at least 20 of which were keepers. The fish of the day was a 3 1/3# spot. We had several others very close to it. This is the best January day that I can remember. snagged in outlet 3, FishnDave, Smithvillesteve and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillback Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Dutch gets all the credit for finding the spot. A lot of fish on the depth finder, looked like one of Dockinit's screen shots. Daryk Campbell Sr, grizwilson and snagged in outlet 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ham Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I can’t believe you got Jeff out when it was below freezing. grizwilson 1 Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that’s all Jeff ever threw. nomolites and m&m 2 "Honor is a man's gift to himself" Rob Roy McGregor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff was reluctant to go out early in the cold, however the forecast called for a warm day. It hit 64 degrees on my way home. Had the window down while driving. grizwilson, nomolites, Johnsfolly and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch meant that we fished a different type of structure. I did catch them on a Ned. Caught 29 bass all on the same rig, a half Zinker glued to one of Dtrs Ozark Finesse heads. If I had a personal great baits Hall of Fame, I'd put that one in there, but since I don't, I'll be throwing it next time out. I did try a little tube for a while and a Keitech, but threw those in the skunk areas.
