This report is for last Thursday and I’m just now getting around to posting it because I have been working the Nashville Fishing & Turkey Expo. It was nice to see some old faces and meet some new ones. It was a wonderful show and the turnout was one of the largest I can ever remember. Thursday we launched out of Waterfront and fished from there up to Goosepond. Water temps were 49-51 degrees and the water was clear in the pockets and had slight color on the river. We targeted breaklines using the Xcalibur Xr50 Rattle bait in Royal Red, and the Xs4 Stick bait in Gold Bream. We managed to catch 4 solid keepers before I broke out the Cotton Cordell C.C. Spoon and started catching some striped bass that keep flashing across the graph. While jigging the spoon we got into a large school of crappie and proceed to put 25 crappies in the boat in the next hour. When you find crappie like that bass fishing gets put on hold.
BTW- My new website is up and you can now find it at two different addresses. As always www.mildrillafishing.com and a new easier to spell www.grassfishing.com
