March 12 Cape Fair

[Dutch]

Jeff met me at barely daylight this morning.  There was only one other boat there in the lot.  The river has treated me so poorly that I couldn’t make myself go up.  We hit some bluff ends, pockets, and creeks.  We caught something almost every where we stopped, though not a lot.  The common factor seemed to be rocks, the more the better.  We caught 26 lmb, smb, and spots.   Keepers were scarce.  We probably only had 4.  
 

Jeff had a 3# smallmouth and a 4# largemouth.  I’m on my tablet and don’t have the pics here.  I hope Jeff will post them after while.

 

We threw spinner baits, crank baits and jerk baits…little to no love.  The main bait was the Ned rig.  I think we only used dirt, green pumpkin and Alabama craw.  They hit all three.

I should've long armed the fish, they look tiny.

Thanks for the trip Dutch, another great day to be fishing!

I must have screwed up your camera.  They were lots bigger in real life.
